Practical guidance for IT specialist trainers – from vocational curriculum planning to exam preparation

This collection is aimed at colleagues training IT specialists for system integration. The content reflects experience from in-company training at Join GmbH and can be adapted to your own structures.

All tasks in the task area are mapped to the twelve learning fields of the current framework curriculum for IT specialists in system integration and can serve as a starting point for in-company exercises, training reports and vocational evidence.

Guide
Map the vocational framework curriculum

Align operational activities with learning fields, document training goals per quarter and reconcile the training plan with the job profile and exam requirements.

Guide
Weekly planning & training reports

Plan rotating focus areas (network, server, support), define measurable weekly goals and provide concrete prompts for training reports – activity, learning field reference and reflection.

Guide
Exam preparation

Structure preparation for Part 1 (summer year 2) and Part 2 (winter year 3): practice projects, documentation standards, oral exam simulation and time management.

Template
Documentation templates

Use consistent templates for work instructions, handover protocols and incident documentation – essential for exams, audits and knowledge transfer in the team.
