DEUTSCHE TECHNOLOGIESCHULE PÄRNU – DTS PÄRNU

Die Schule wurde 2001 vom Technologie – und Berufsbildungszentrum Königs Wusterhausen, einem Unternehmen der Stiftung Bildung und Handwerk  (Bundesrepublik Deutschland) in Pärnu gegründet. Das Ziel der Schule ist eine zeitgemäße Berufsausbildung durch abschlussorientierte und modularisierte Aus-, Fort- und Weiterbildung.

The German Technological School of Pärnu, which is a private vocational educational institution belonging to the German foundation Stiftung Bildung und Handwerk, is one example of the widening of an apprenticeship system. It shows that in system level in general there are no obstacles for outgoing mobility. From the initiation of the PRÕM (1) project, the school has gradually transferred from school-based learning to apprenticeship-based learning and has acquired funding through the project. During the past academic year, the school operated 100% in this study form and plans to continue this way. The school’s fields of studies are multimedia, energy, and business administration and as at spring 2019, it has 96 students. On the basis of its practical experience, the German Technological School of Pärnu considers apprenticeship suitable and applicable also for longer curricula. The school has had the opportunity to use the training bases organised by the German owners in Berlin where a dual study system similar to the Estonian system is applied.
