The vocatium Oldenburg is an annual trade fair focused on career and academic orientation. It is specifically designed for students approaching career decision age and offers them practical, personalized guidance for shaping their professional future. The event is organized by IfT Institut für Talententwicklung GmbH, a seasoned expert in career guidance and continuing education. Since its inception in 2008, the fair has become a well-established fixture in the educational landscape of northwestern Germany. With its emphasis on quality over quantity and a structured format of pre-scheduled advisory sessions, vocatium Oldenburg is now considered one of the most successful events of its kind in Germany.
IfT hosts vocatium fairs at over 80 locations across the country, following a unique concept: participants can arrange meetings in advance with companies, universities, and institutions that match their interests. This creates meaningful, targeted interactions tailored to individual career goals. In Oldenburg, the fair takes place at the centrally located Weser-Ems-Hallen, a venue well connected by public transport and highways, with ample parking available.
The fair covers a wide range of educational and career paths—from vocational training and dual study programs to traditional university degrees. Additional resources include information on voluntary services and opportunities abroad, offering young people further avenues for personal growth. Beyond information booths and presentations, the one-on-one advisory sessions provide especially valuable guidance and support for making informed decisions. A highlight of the fair is the “speed-dating” format with potential employers and educational institutions—an intensive, time-efficient way to make initial contact and explore diverse opportunities.
vocatium Oldenburg stands out for its clear structure, high-quality conversations, and personal atmosphere. It is not a typical public fair, but rather a specialized event with a defined target audience and measurable benefits. For young people navigating their career choices, it serves as an important platform that presents new perspectives, offers concrete action steps, and opens up individual development opportunities.
The vocatium will take place on 2 days from Tuesday, 19. May to Wednesday, 20. May 2026 in Oldenburg.
