Vocational and higher vocational exams (Berufs- und höhere Fachprüfungen)
The admission to the vocational exams is generally granted to those who have completed their vocational education and can prove a number of years of working experience. The same applies to the higher vocational exam, which sometimes requires that a vocational exam be passed previously.
