Germany is increasingly relying on foreign trainees to help address shortages of skilled workers. Their number has risen from more than 71,000 in 2004 to over 250,000 today, while their share of all trainees has grown from 5.3% in 1999 to 16.3% in 2025. At the same time, the number of German trainees aged 15 to 35 is expected to fall from around 1.7 million in 2008 to 1.3 million in 2025. The increase in foreign trainees has not fully offset this decline, but it has limited its impact. A study by the German Economic Institute stresses that immigration alone is not enough: successfully recruiting trainees requires language support, career guidance, and streamlined residence and training procedures. The government is planning to establish an agency to attract young people from abroad and help retain them.
