Which hotel trains what?

Which apprenticeships are offered in which hotel? With the 2 and 3-year apprenticeships, there is an offer for every starting point - regardless of whether you have an Abitur, Realschule or Hauptschulabschluss or are a migrant from another country. We will be happy to advise you on what suits you best. There is also the possibility of a trial internship!

Taster internship

You can read a lot about a profession in a hotel. It is more important to get an idea on the spot and gain practical experience of what it feels like to work in a hotel. Then you get to know the working environment and the people who would work with you.

That's why we invite you to get a taste of what we're all about, whether it's during a school internship, a voluntary internship during the school holidays or the career orientation days. If you are already of age, you can also work with us in a part-time job and thus, in addition to a decent pocket money, also gain useful impressions about us as an employer and training company.

You are very welcome! You are also welcome to come with your parents to clarify all questions together.

Just contact the hotel you are interested in. You can find the contact details below.

Gap Year South Westphalia

A great offer in South Westphalia for all students & young people who don't yet know which direction they want to choose for their career:

1 year with 3 internships in 3 different industries/companies.

Through this practical experience you will find out what suits you... or not at all. And the whole thing doesn't come for free: you even get paid for your work as part of the internship and a travel allowance.

The hotels of the "Sterne" cooperation are involved and offer internships. You can find us on the Gap Year homepage at the occupational field "Hotel / Gastronomy / Tourism".

So - how about a "star test run" in your gap year?

Fairs and events

Career orientation made easy - there are many trade fairs and events where you can get first information about the apprenticeship professions in the hotel. We have a stand at a number of trade fairs. We also go directly to schools.

We have summarized all dates on one page.

pre(ure)parts

We know there are some caveats for the hospitality industry. However, that is always only part of the truth. There are two sides to everything! So that you can inform yourself comprehensively, we have also taken up and explained the second side of these reservations.
