vocatium Fuerth

The vocatium Fürth is an annual trade fair focused on career and study opportunities, known for its structured and goal-oriented approach to vocational and academic orientation. It is organized by the IfT Institute for Talent Development GmbH, which has specialized in personalized career guidance and targeted professional development since its founding in 2008. As part of a nationwide network with over 80 locations, vocatium Fürth offers a thoughtfully designed fair format that is both informative and practical.

Held at the Stadthalle Fürth, the fair once again welcomes students exploring career options, as well as parents, teachers, and other interested visitors. Centrally located, the venue is easily accessible by public transport and car: Fürth’s main train station is just a short walk away, with bus and tram stops nearby and ample parking available. The surrounding area, with its restaurants, cafés, hotels, and shops, provides ideal conditions for a pleasant visit.

A hallmark of vocatium Fürth is its emphasis on pre-scheduled one-on-one meetings. These 20-minute advisory sessions with companies, universities, and institutions are arranged in advance and allow for focused, personal conversations. Participants receive targeted information on vocational training, dual study programs, volunteer opportunities, internships, studying abroad, applications, and career planning—key aspects for a successful start to professional life.

The fair is complemented by a diverse program of presentations that explore essential topics in career orientation and job applications. Schools prepare their students specifically for the event with the help of workshops, a fair handbook, and a digital matchmaking platform for follow-up. A special highlight is the "speed dating" format with employers and educational institutions, where participants can make numerous valuable contacts in a short amount of time.

Over the years, vocatium Fürth has established itself as an important meeting point for young people seeking clarity and concrete support in shaping their professional future. With its clear concept, personalized conversation format, and professional organization by IfT, it ranks among the most successful events of its kind in Germany—practical, individualized, and tailored to the needs of its visitors.

The vocatium will take place on Wednesday, 05. May 2027 in Fuerth.
