Construction industry – preparation for implementing updated training regulations

The new training regulations for occupations in construction industry mean that the sector is undergoing fundamental modernisation. The main aspects to mention at a structural level are the introduction of a new extended journeyman or final examination and a new model for linking two-year and three-year training programmes. In terms of content, greater emphasis is being placed on topics such as digitalisation and sustainability compared to the previous regulations from 1999. Inter-company courses continue to be highly relevant. BIBB is supporting training practice at various levels via both analogue and digital means as the new ordinance is implemented.
