Cars from Germany, bananas from Costa Rica, and laptops from China – these goods are all available thanks to Freight Forwarding and Logistics. Merchants for Freight Forwarding and Logistics organize the shipping and storage of goods in national and international freight traffic. They advise customers, calculate offers and carry out shipping and deployment planning. Does this sound interesting to you? Does pure theoretical, parrot fashion, learning bore you? Then the Dual Vocational Education and Training in Freight Forwarding and Logistics is exactly the right choice for you.

This three-year programme incorporates the German Dual System and integrates theoretical learning with practical experience within the workplace. Four days a week, you spend as a trainee in a company and once a week, you attend a theoretical class.
