Trainees explain to Habeck and Heil what goes wrong during their training. In 2023, the number of unfilled training positions reached a new high of over 73,000.

Over 2.6 million people between the ages of 20 and 34 did not have a vocational qualification in 2021 alone. By 2030 alone, seven million people will have to be replaced in their jobs, said Labor Minister Hubertus Heil (SPD) “We are still a strong country, but this country needs an update,” said Heil.
