Certificate/journeyman’s certificate for vocational education and training programmes (VET)

Certificates/journeyman’s certificates for vocational education and training programmes are awarded to students who have successfully completed a VET-programme. These programmes are dual VET-programmes and consist of both school-based teaching and internship at a public or private enterprise. The programmes typically take 2-4 years to complete. The final examination in most of the VET programmes is a combination of project work with a practical content and a theoretical examination. During their programmes, the pupils also study basic subjects such as Danish, English and mathematics. These subjects usually conclude with oral examinations.
