In short
Reading time: 1 min- What changes:
- Many requirements are moved from the executive order to the training scheme, e.g. basic subjects, certificates and competence goals.
- The journeyman's examination is still held by the school in consultation with the subject committee, but it is now organised as set out in the training scheme, and the requirements for the school certificate and journeyman's certificate have changed.
- At the same time, the requirement to complete English F for the school certificate is removed, and the journeyman's certificate can no longer carry the designations "passed with distinction" or medals.
- Who: The rules apply to apprentices on the vocational training programme for car painters.
- When: The executive order entered into force on 1 August 2026.
