In addition, experts will provide information on the regional   labor   market and self-employment.   At the same time, participants are supported in compiling their application documents. In addition to learning about different application channels and current application trends, students are taught how to market their own intercultural profile in the best possible way in order to enter the professional world with confidence. Thanks to intensive support in compiling their application documents, participants leave the seminar well equipped with compact and informative application documents.   Part 2: Language competence - Business German (specialized language course ): In this part of the module, UWC participants are prepared for a job-related use of German.
