Understanding technology. Shaping our future.

You don’t just want to talk about IT — you want to build it? Then training as an IT Specialist (m/f/x) is exactly your path.

If you choose System Integration, you’ll make sure our networks and IT systems run smoothly by planning, installing, and maintaining complex infrastructures. No matter which specialization you select, you’ll work hands-on from day one, learn modern technologies, and take on real responsibility. With us, you’ll receive high-quality training plus the opportunity to grow personally and professionally.

Your apprenticeship

Step by step through the apprenticeship

1st year of training

In your first year, you’ll gradually immerse yourself in the IT world at BENTELER. You’ll rotate through different IT areas and gain initial hands-on experience — from small tasks to your first project steps. At the same time, you’ll attend vocational school in block format to learn the theoretical fundamentals. This combination gives you a solid foundation for everything that follows.

2nd year of training

In your second year, you’ll work much more independently and take on greater responsibility in projects. You’ll discover which tasks suit you best — programming, networks, hardware, support, or something entirely different. Supported by your schoolwork and hands-on practice, you’ll also complete the first part of your IHK exam. Together with your training team, you’ll determine your strengths and which departments best match your skills — helping you shape your future path in IT at BENTELER.

3rd year of training

In your third and final year, you're entering the home stretch. You’ll focus on the areas that align with your future role, take on increasing responsibility, and gradually become a fully qualified IT professional. At the same time, you’ll prepare intensively for your final exam — including your project paper and presentation — always supported by your instructors. Our goal is simple: for you to pass successfully and take the next step into your career with us.

Why this job matters

Almost nothing in modern industry works without IT — and that’s where you come in.

You develop software that automates workflows and maintain networks that must remain stable and secure.
