Study co-operatively

The four-and-a-half-year training programme is a combination of vocational training and a degree course - and is often referred to as the "ideal way" of training. This is because it combines theory and practice much more intensively than a traditional degree programme can guarantee. The close link with the company in which the in-company training takes place promises excellent career opportunities in that company. The training contract guarantees an income from day one and therefore financial independence.
