ABOUT THE FAIR
The Berlin Education Fair is one of the leading information and networking platforms for education, career development and professional advancement in the German capital. Bringing together educational institutions, businesses, public-sector organisations and career-minded visitors, it provides a comprehensive overview of current educational opportunities and career prospects.
Held annually at Berlin’s Olympic Stadium, the event is organised by HR Business GmbH, an experienced organiser of careers, education and recruitment events. Through its regular staging, the fair has become a well-established fixture in Berlin’s events calendar, attracting large numbers of visitors each year from across the capital region and throughout Germany.
The fair focuses on a wide range of pathways into vocational training, higher education, dual-study programmes, continuing professional development and career entry. Visitors can access practical information on apprenticeships, dual vocational training schemes, degree programmes at universities and higher education institutions, as well as professional qualifications and training opportunities for working professionals and those returning to the workforce. In addition, the event offers expert guidance on career planning, job application strategies and professional development across a variety of sectors. A particular advantage is the opportunity to engage directly with recruiters, academic advisers and education specialists, providing valuable first-hand insights.
Exhibitors showcase educational programmes, degree courses, professional development opportunities, graduate trainee schemes, internships, apprenticeships and a wide range of career and employment opportunities. Many organisations also use the fair as a recruitment platform, offering discussions with prospective candidates and, in some cases, the opportunity to apply for positions on site.
The Berlin Education Fair is closely linked to the city’s role as one of Germany’s foremost centres for education, research and business. With its diverse higher education landscape, numerous research institutions and dynamic corporate sector, Berlin provides the ideal setting for an event that connects education with career development. At the same time, the fair serves as a showcase for the wider Berlin-Brandenburg education and labour market region.
Highlights of the event include one-to-one advisory sessions, career coaching, expert presentations, information forums and insights into the latest trends and developments in education and employment.
Exhibitors represent a broad range of industries, including manufacturing, retail, skilled trades, healthcare, information technology, public administration, emergency and security services, financial services, logistics, education, science and research. The exhibition is further enhanced by the participation of universities, higher education institutions, academies, training providers and continuing education organisations.
The fair attracts an equally diverse audience. School pupils, sixth-form students, university students, recent graduates, early-career professionals, experienced specialists, returners to the workforce and individuals seeking further qualifications attend to explore their career options and establish valuable professional contacts.
With Berlin’s Olympic Stadium as its venue, the Education Fair benefits from an exceptional location offering modern infrastructure and a high public profile. The stadium is easily accessible by S-Bahn and U-Bahn services as well as several bus routes, and provides extensive parking facilities. Its combination of excellent transport links, convenient location and historic setting makes the event attractive to both exhibitors and visitors, reinforcing its position as a key meeting place for education, career development and future employment opportunities.
The Bildungsmesse will take place on Tuesday, 13. October 2026 in Berlin.
