Training FAQ
Questions & Answers
Do I have to pay for the textbooks myself?
If your vocational school uses textbooks, you will initially have to pay for them yourself. Once you have passed your probationary period, half of the costs (50 per cent of the total price) will be reimbursed - provided you submit the invoice to the T&C team.
Who is my contact person during the training programme?
There is at least one trainer for each department who will support you. In addition, the T&C team supports all trainees and managers and is available as a neutral point of contact for your questions.
How much will I earn during my apprenticeship?
The fixed salary is based on the collective agreement for trainees.
