More education

Vocational education and training lead to vocational competence (with or without a trade or journeyman’s certificate). After completing vocational education and training you can start working or take further education:

You can take further education at a tertiary vocational college. A tertiary vocational education is a short vocational further education meant for those who have taken vocational education and training.
You can take the master certificate examination if you have the trade or journeyman’s certificate in a trade that comes under the master craftsman’s programme, and have sufficient experience. The master course of studies qualifies you for a management or middle-management position within your trade area, and gives you the competence to start up your own company.
You can take a Vg3 supplementary programme for general university admissions certification
– after Vg2 or
– after achieving vocational competence.
You will then have the option to take higher education at a university college or university. Remember that some study programmes, such as for instance engineering, science and medical studies, require you to have certain science subjects.
You can also apply for admission to higher education after a preliminary course or by the Y-path, the vocational pathway to higher education. The Y-path is intended for those with relevant vocational experience. Preliminary courses and the Y-path are most commonly used for science and engineering studies.
