German Apprenticeships – Ausbildung & Duales Studium API

Search German apprenticeship (Ausbildung) and dual study (Duales Studium) offers from the official job-search data of the Bundesagentur für Arbeit (German Federal Employment Agency), and get one clean, flat JSON row per offer: title, profession (Beruf), employer, city, postal code, region, start date, publication date, reference number, a link to the offer on arbeitsagentur.de, and coordinates.

Search, for example, "Fachinformatiker in Berlin", "Mechatroniker within 50 km of 80331" or "Informatik dual in Hamburg, starting 2027", and get the results as a JSON, CSV or Excel dataset. You can also call it through the API, n8n, Make, Zapier or an AI agent (MCP).

Who it is for

• Recruiters and HR teams: track who is hiring apprentices in a region, benchmark competitors and find gaps.
• Schools and career counsellors: give pupils up-to-date lists of training places near them.
• Apprenticeship portals and job boards: fill or update your listings with structured data.
• Researchers and journalists: analyse the training market by profession, region and start date.

Why this actor

• Official source: the public Jobsuche API that powers the arbeitsagentur.de web app. It needs no login, no proxy and no scraping of HTML.
• Apprenticeships only: queries are restricted to offer type 4 (Ausbildung / Duales Studium), so you get no regular jobs mixed in.
• Fast and cheap: 10 offers in about 5 seconds at 256 MB, for $0.001 per offer (competitors charge $0.001 to $0.003 per row plus start fees).
• Flat, AI-friendly output: the same fields in every row, ISO dates and numeric lat/lon.
• Privacy-friendly: only the employer company and public posting fields are returned. Names of contact persons are never output.
