Journeyman's examination Part I: Admission

Anyone completing vocational training with an extended journeyman's examination requires separate admission for part 1 of the journeyman's examination.

If you complete vocational training with a "stretched journeyman's examination" (journeyman's examination in two parts that fall apart in time), you need a separate admission for Part 1.

In order to be admitted to Part 1 of the journeyman's examination, you must:

• who have completed the required period of training prescribed in the training regulations,
• have kept evidence of formal qualifications and, if necessary, have passed prescribed intermediate examinations,
• register for the exam or be registered by your instructor.

In addition, your vocational training relationship must be entered in the apprentice register. This does not apply if the entry is missing for a reason for which neither the apprentice (trainee) nor his legal representative is responsible.

The chairman of the examination board decides on admission to the journeyman's examination. If he does not consider the admission requirements to be met, the examination board decides.

Under certain circumstances, e.g. in the case of a shortened apprenticeship period, it may be the case that both parts of the journeyman's examination are carried out together at the end of the training period.

The examination is free of charge for apprentices (trainees).

Trainees must be released from work to take examinations. Trainees will continue to receive their training allowance for the time they are released from work.

People with disabilities should indicate their special needs when registering for the final examination so that these can be taken into account when the final examination is conducted.

Trainees who have taken parental leave must not be disadvantaged by this when deciding on admission.
