Apprenticeship with school leaving exam (Matura) during working hours

Where can you find this? Only at AT&S!

With the working time model, you attend the school-leaving certificate courses during your working hours. During the day – directly at the company – you sit in the lecture theatre for five hours a week, study for your exams and get paid for it. This does not extend your apprenticeship period. And it’s all free of charge.

Get started and start your professional career as well as your school education from one source. Take advantage of this unique opportunity!

  • Lessons = working time
  • Lessons directly in the company
  • No evening classes
  • No extended apprenticeship period
  • No costs
