Preparation

Preparation means being prepared to access and give your very best. It means being engaged and committed to training and developing skills and absorbing knowledge. In addition to a good professional foundation, preparation for working life after the training is just as relevant. For this reason, it is important to collect photos of your classwork and to have your own website ready early.
