vocatium Magdeburg

The vocatium, an annual education and career orientation fair, takes place at the Maritim Hotel in Magdeburg. The hotel is centrally located in Magdeburg, providing the ideal venue for the event. With its location in the heart of the city, the Maritim Hotel is easily accessible by both public transport and car. Since 2008, the fair has been organized by the IfT Institute for Talent Development, which specializes in individual career orientation and further education.

The institute organizes vocatium fairs not only in Magdeburg but also in many other locations across Germany. The fairs are part of a nationwide network focused on individual career and study orientation for students and young people. With over 80 locations, the unique fair concept, which offers scheduled conversations, has been established throughout Germany. The main themes are education, career orientation, studies, training, and further education with representatives from companies, universities, and institutions from various industries. Particular emphasis is placed on personal counseling sessions, information booths, and lectures that assist visitors in their career orientation. A highlight of the fair is the "speed dating" with potential employers and educational institutions, which offers visitors the opportunity to make many interesting contacts in a short amount of time. The vocatium fair is considered one of the most successful events of its kind in Germany and has developed over the years into a vital meeting point for students, graduates, job starters, and employers. At the Maritim Hotel in Magdeburg, the vocatium fair provides an established platform for individual career orientation and offers participants numerous opportunities for personal development and networking.

The vocatium will take place on 2 days from Tuesday, 11. June to Wednesday, 12. June 2024 in Magdeburg.
