vocatium Stuttgart
15. - 16. July 2025 | Trade fair for career orientation for training, dual studies and commitment | regional Fair

The vocatium Fair is an annually held, nationally established trade fair for education and career orientation. It provides young people with targeted support on their way to vocational training or university studies. The name “vocatium” is derived from the Latin vocatio – meaning “calling” – and symbolizes the core mission of the fair: to support young individuals in discovering their career paths through personal, practical guidance.
In Stuttgart, the vocatium traditionally takes place at the Hanns-Martin-Schleyer-Halle – a modern venue located in the Bad Cannstatt district. Thanks to its convenient location, the hall is easily accessible by both car and public transportation. With its spacious layout and modern facilities, it provides ideal conditions for this dialogue-based trade fair, which goes beyond the traditional concept of a career fair.
The vocatium is organized by the IfT Institute for Talent Development GmbH, which has been implementing a unique nationwide fair concept since 2008. With over 80 locations across Germany, vocatium forms a network of personalized educational guidance. A hallmark of the format is the scheduled, one-on-one meetings between students and exhibitors – a feature that gives the fair a personal and efficient character.
The main focus is on topics such as career orientation, university studies, vocational training, and further education. Students can gather detailed information about dual study programs, traditional apprenticeships, voluntary service opportunities, internships, and stays abroad. This is complemented by a diverse program of presentations covering application strategies, study financing, and alternative educational pathways. Creative careers as well as technical fields in mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, and technology (STEM) are also specifically addressed. In the STEM forum, students are invited to discover and explore through experiments, lectures, and interactive stations.
Among the exhibitors are companies, universities, chambers of commerce, and institutions from a wide range of sectors – from industry and skilled trades to public administration, social services, and healthcare. The fair primarily targets students from the 9th grade onwards but is also open to parents, teachers, and prospective university students. A special feature is the organized “speed dating” with training and study providers – offering a valuable opportunity to engage in brief conversations with multiple potential employers or education partners.
The vocatium fair is firmly rooted in the region and maintains close cooperation with schools, local organizations, and economic stakeholders. At the same time, it attracts educational institutions from across Germany and abroad.
The vocatium at the Hanns-Martin-Schleyer-Halle is more than just a fair. It is a well-designed experiential format that supports young people during a crucial life phase with high-quality information, personal conversations, and digital resources. Its combination of in-depth expertise, individualized counseling, and convenient accessibility makes it a beacon of career orientation – right in the heart of Stuttgart.
The vocatium will take place on 2 days from Tuesday, 15. July to Wednesday, 16. July 2025 in Stuttgart.
