Testimonial of Ute Schmitt (BBS Wirtschaft 1 Ludwigshafen):
It was great honour to present EBBD as a best practice example for excellence in VET on this level of the EU.
From our school’s experience, EBBD graduates do not have problems finding high level apprenticeship or dual bachelor study programmes provided by companies like BASF, IBM, SAP, HP etc. after their exams.
Furthermore, it has proven to be the best way promoting the excellence level that can be achieved by choosing a VET study programme like EBBD to let the students and graduates speak themselves. They share their experiences during information evenings for prospective students and their parents, at educational fairs and in a promotional video, thus convincing many of the participants, that VET can be a first choice, resulting in enrolments for EBBD at our college.
All in all, European VET qualifications – such as EBBD – which are strategically implementing internationalization and mobility in curricula promote VET as a first choice.
