Advice for and evaluation of existing or potential training employers
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzYour company may only hire and provide training to trainees if
- the training premises are suitable in terms of their design and facilities
- the ratio of trainees to training places or training staff employed is appropriate.
If your company wants to provide training for the first time, an on-site assessment regarding training suitability is performed. In addition, the training advisors inform all parties involved in the vocational training about the substantive requirements of dual vocational training.
If your company cannot provide the full range of required vocational competencies, knowledge and skills on its premises, you may have the option of filling any training gaps via training offered by a different provider.
Following the initial assessment, the training advisors visit the companies and premises allocated to their region regularly in order to help and advise you on maintaining training in line with the relevant directives.
Depending on the training catchment area and the occupation requiring formal vocational training, the authority responsible for assessing suitability may be, for example, the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (, IHK), the Chamber of Skilled Trades and Crafts (, HWK), the Chamber of Agriculture (, LWK) or an alternative authority.
Training measures outside the company can be provided, for example, by partner companies as part of a joint training program or by commissioning a suitable service provider (e.g. inter-company vocational training center).
