Title: مازال حاير بن دراسة وتكوين المهني أوسبلدنج في ألمانيا ديرهوم بجوج مع سميرس أكاديمي (The video discusses studying and vocational training (Ausbildung) in Germany, presented by Samir’s Academy)
Main Ideas and Concepts:
- Introduction and Context
- The live session is held by Samir’s Academy to answer questions about studying and vocational training in Germany.
- The session aims to clarify misunderstandings and provide guidance for Moroccans and others interested in studying or training in Germany.
- Vocational Training (Ausbildung) in Germany
- Vocational training is highly popular among Moroccan students learning German; many schools in Morocco promote it.
- There are many language schools (around 50 in Fez alone), but not all provide strong language skills.
- Vocational training does not require a university entrance qualification ("block"), but a blocked account (financial guarantee) is necessary.
- Success rates for coming to Germany for vocational training are about 50% due to various obstacles, mainly language proficiency and finding a training contract.
- The process from starting language learning to arriving in Germany typically takes about 1 to 1.5 years.
- Many students fail to find contracts or face bureaucratic hurdles.
- Studying in Germany
- Studying requires university acceptance and a blocked account.
- The success rate for students coming to Germany is higher (about 95%) compared to vocational training.
- Students often wait for visa issuance after paying fees.
- There is a misconception that vocational training is easier or guaranteed; reality is more complex.
- Hybrid approach: Samir’s Academy offers a combined program starting with language and study preparation in Morocco, then settling in Germany with support for housing, internships, and job search.
- Hybrid Program Offered by Samir’s Academy
- Combines studying and vocational training.
- Students pay a fee similar to vocational training but start with study preparation.
- Upon arrival in Germany, students receive support with housing, internships, and job placements.
- This approach helps students settle and improve language skills while searching for vocational training contracts.
- Offers flexibility and a better chance to integrate into German society and job market.
- Visa and Financial Requirements
- Blocked account is mandatory for both study and vocational training visas.
- Visa processing times vary; patience is required.
- Some students pay visa fees online and wait for processing.
- New visa types like "searching for a place of study/training" visa exist, valid for 9 months.
- IP2 and IP2 Plus are residence and work permits offered to those already in Germany for better stability.
- University Acceptance and Degrees
- Many universities no longer accept professional licenses (e.g., BTS, FTT) for master’s programs.
- Bachelor’s degrees are generally required for master’s admission.
- Some exceptions exist, but acceptance is not guaranteed.
- Students are encouraged to pursue bachelor’s degrees first.
- Studying in English is possible, often without tuition fees, but requires a good English test score (e.g., IELTS 7).
- Preparatory courses may be needed depending on the field and previous qualifications.
- Studying Medicine and Other Competitive Fields
- Medicine and veterinary medicine require very high grades (GPA around 1.3).
- Recently, new laws allow entry without the high GPA if the student commits to work in an Arab country for some years.
- Admission to medicine is highly competitive and difficult for most Moroccans.
- Choosing Universities and Programs
- The reputation of the university is less important than the quality and comfort of study.
- Large universities have many students and continuous exams, leading to little real vacation time.
- Smaller or specialized schools (e.g., engineering schools) may offer better study environments.
- Practical experience and skills often outweigh the university name in the job market.
- Information Technology and Vocational Training Challenges
- Finding vocational training contracts in IT is difficult but possible.
- Language skills are crucial for success.
- Companies advertising training positions may prefer local candidates.
- Some online platforms (like Osbildon) are used for training contracts but may restrict applicants from certain countries.
- Language Learning
- Samir’s Academy collaborates with a remote German language school with experienced teachers.
- The school focuses on practical language skills rather than just passing exams.
- New groups start every two months, with small class sizes and multiple teachers per group.
- Support Services by Samir’s Academy
- Assistance with university acceptance, visa applications, blocked accounts, housing, internships, and job placement.
- Services available both in Morocco (Kenitra office) and Germany.
