vocatium Munich

vocatium Munich is an annual education and career fair aimed specifically at students and young people exploring their career paths. Since 2008, it has been organized by the IfT Institute for Talent Development GmbH, a nationwide provider specializing in personalized career guidance and further education. With a strong emphasis on personal development opportunities, vocatium Munich not only serves as an information hub but also actively promotes direct interaction between young people and potential training institutions or universities.

The event is held at the modern MTC Munich Textile Center, centrally located in the Bavarian capital. Its contemporary architecture and well-equipped infrastructure provide an ideal setting for a professional fair environment. The venue enables in-depth, one-on-one consultations in a welcoming atmosphere, where visitors and exhibitors engage on equal footing.

The fair covers a wide range of topics—from vocational training and dual study programs to university degrees, internships, voluntary services, and international exchange opportunities. Special attention is given to STEM careers and practical guidance on financing studies, including options like BAföG and scholarships. Participants also benefit from tailored career counseling, application training, and lectures designed to meet the specific needs of the target audience.

A key feature of vocatium Munich is its structured “speed-dating” format with companies, universities, and institutions. These pre-scheduled individual meetings offer students a focused opportunity to explore various career fields and establish valuable contacts—providing a distinct advantage over conventional career fairs.

vocatium Munich is not a traditional public fair, but a targeted communication platform focused on high-quality counseling. It is primarily aimed at students, as well as parents and teachers who support them in the career decision-making process. With its well-thought-out concept and personalized approach, the fair has become a recognized and effective tool for career orientation.

The vocatium in Munich took place from Tuesday, 13. May to Wednesday, 14. May 2025.
