Where else you can go
Routes many people do not think of straight away. Every statement names source and date; what is missing reads “not documented yet”.
Bachelor Professional in IT (IHK advanced training)
You take on specialist and leadership tasks in IT: you lead IT projects, steer IT-related processes and lead staff. The qualification is nationally regulated advanced training at the second advanced training level.
Why you fit
One of the selectable specialisations is called "planning, developing, implementing and evaluating software solutions" and builds on your development practice.
The route there
- Further training and exam
- Since 01.11.2024 the regulation on the Bachelor Professional in IT applies. You are admitted with a final exam in an IT apprenticeship occupation, with the exam as certified IT professional specialist (Geprüfte/r Berufsspezialist/in), with another vocational qualification and at least one year of work experience, with at least 90 ECTS credits from a related degree programme and at least two years of work experience, or with at least five years of work experience. For the last three routes, your experience must relate in content to the tasks of the qualification. If you credibly show comparable professional competence in another way, you can also be admitted. Exam parts: subject specialisation, IT-specific fields of action, staff leadership and personnel management, IT project.
