The individual demands of domestic and international guests regarding transportation, accommodation, and service quality in tourism are continuously increasing – and rapidly evolving. To succeed in the international market, businesses and destinations in the industry require professional players.

The tourism industry offers various exciting and diverse apprenticeships both in hospitality and in tourism (travel agencies, tour operators, and transport providers).

Information about apprenticeships in tourism is available through training profiles, which can be accessed via links on the BerufeNet of the Federal Employment Agency (German Chamber of Commerce and Industry). A comprehensive overview of tourism-related professions can be downloaded as a PDF document from the BA website (only available in German).

The respective framework curricula for apprenticeships can be downloaded by interested parties from the Conference of Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs' website.
