Typical DEKRA: actively working to prevent health risks. Since 1997, DEKRA has also been inspecting medical practices.

With increasing online trade and transport volumes, the profession of professional truck drivers is more relevant than ever. However, there is a shortage of drivers in the European Union – Germany, for example, faces a shortage of 60,000–80,000 professional drivers. A gap that’s only set to grow. DEKRA driver training in Norderstedt prepares professionals for the road. This special training is offering a mix of theory, practical lessons, and internships, it provides career changers and job seekers with the skills they need to secure a stable, well-paying job. Companies are actively recruiting from DEKRA’s training programs and starting salaries of €3,200 - €3,800 gross are becoming standard. Plus, language support for migrants and specialized training for bus drivers make it an inclusive, future-proof opportunity. How does DEKRA ensure success for its graduates?
