vocatium Cottbus is an annual education and career fair that stands out for its innovative and targeted approach to individual career orientation. It is organized by the IfT Institute for Talent Development, a seasoned organizer specializing in tailored educational and career guidance for young people across Germany since 2008. With more than 80 locations nationwide, the institute plays a key role in vocational and academic orientation.
The event takes place in the Lausitz-Arena, located in the Sachsendorf district just south of Cottbus city center. Known primarily as a venue for football matches, the modern multipurpose hall offers an energetic atmosphere and is ideally suited for large-scale education and career fairs.
The fair primarily targets students exploring career options, as well as teachers and parents who support young people in planning their professional futures. At the heart of vocatium Cottbus are pre-scheduled, one-on-one meetings with companies, universities, and institutions. These personalized sessions are carefully prepared and provide focused information on apprenticeships, dual study programs, academic degrees, internships, international opportunities, and voluntary service. This structured format sets the fair apart from traditional education fairs, making it particularly effective.
In addition, the event offers application training, workshops, and a wide range of informational materials to provide practical support for young people entering the workforce. A highlight of the fair is the speed-dating format with potential employers and educational institutions, enabling intensive yet efficient networking.
vocatium Cottbus is not only a key regional gathering for students, graduates, young professionals, and employers, but also part of a nationwide network of fairs held under the patronage of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research. In close cooperation with regional partners such as the Cottbus Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the fair creates forward-looking opportunities and fosters meaningful encounters between emerging talent and education providers.
With its clear focus, personal atmosphere, and high-quality content, vocatium Cottbus has established itself as an essential destination for young people who want to take charge of their professional futures in an informed and proactive way.
The vocatium will take place on 2 days from Tuesday, 20. May to Wednesday, 21. May 2025 in Cottbus.
