The SBim in Graz was established in 2008 and is organized by Bundesministerium für Bildung, Wissenschaft und Forschung. The organization of the fair is managed by Uniservice Dienstleistungs GmbH, which, in addition to organizing the fair, also offers various other services in the education sector. It represents the largest educational information fair in Styria. Every October, it opens its doors to serve as a central hub for all those seeking information about educational opportunities in the greater Graz area.
The comprehensive and often overwhelming range of educational options is clearly and accessibly presented at this fair. For those looking for apprenticeships and their families, there's a section titled "Training & Dual Education (15+)", offering an extensive overview of numerous apprenticeship professions. Leading companies showcase their training programs and provide insights into apprentice training. Another main section of the fair is the "14 Years – What Next? (14+)" school information exhibit. Designed as a "School Type Fair", it introduces educational paths after 8th or 9th grade – from business and technical schools to institutions focusing on tourism and commerce, along with many other educational establishments. In Graz alone, primary school students have the choice among 47 different educational institutions with various emphases. The segment "Where to after primary school? (10+)" aims to assist parents with targeted information to make their decisions.
A special highlight of the fair includes diverse lectures on topics such as school and training counseling, application training, and specific apprenticeship professions. These offer visitors additional guidance and in-depth information. The event provides valuable insights for both students and their parents. The impressive "Messe Graz" serves as the venue, known for its top-notch infrastructure and accessibility.
In conclusion, the SBim in Graz is more than just an informational event. It offers guidance, consultation, and inspiration in making educational choices and thus significantly shapes the educational landscape of Styria.
On the whole the organisers welcomed on the 3 days of the fair, from 13. October to 15. October 2022, about 191 exhibitors and 22600 visitors on the SBim in Graz.
The SBim will take place on 3 days from Thursday, 10. October to Saturday, 12. October 2024 in Graz.
