Your apprenticeship at adesso
Apply for one of our IT apprenticeships in application development if...
This is how an apprenticeship at adesso works
1st year: Basic apprenticeship year
You’ll complete your first year of apprenticeship with other apprentices in the vocational training center where you’ll learn the basics of computer science and programming.
2nd year: Getting to know the adesso technology stack
From the second year onwards we welcome you three days a week. Your mentors and other apprentices will introduce you to the technologies we use.
Year 3: Project work - applying knowledge to a project
In the third year of your apprenticeship, you’ll be able to further deepen the knowledge you have acquired and put it to practical use in projects. Of course, you’ll be accompanied along the way and will continue to learn new skills every day.
Year 4: QV preparation and further project work
In the fourth year, in addition to project work, the focus is on your successful completion of the apprenticeship and your graded practical work (QV). After a trial run of comparable work, we’ll close any final gaps in your skill set so that you are well prepared.
