After intensive theoretical and practical training phases as well as a challenging oral examination day, the next step is now imminent for eleven of the graduates: preparing for the final vocational examination to become a housekeeper.
Career prospects in a system-relevant occupational field
The further training qualifies students for a wide range of tasks - from food preparation to business organization and personal services. Whether in retirement homes, agricultural households or daycare centers - housekeeping specialists create feel-good spaces and take on responsible tasks.
The focus is always on people. Anyone who wants to develop their career or open up new perspectives as a career changer will find this vocational training course an attractive option.
"The free vocational training is an added value for both employers and employees," says Ludmilla Scheel, Head of the Middle Neckar Nutrition Center. "The companies can further develop employees without a vocational school qualification or career changers and receive well-qualified and practically trained specialists. At the same time, training to become a state-certified specialist in home economics provides a foundation for a career in home economics." Scheel goes on to report that it is not uncommon for women who have passed the specialist examination to also take the final vocational examination to become a state-certified home economist and complete further training to become a master of home economics and even an agricultural teacher and consultant. "It's exciting for me," says Scheel, "when I meet former students who I taught myself as colleagues in workshops or as teachers in the classroom."
