There are two ways for you to continue your Bachelor's degree in Germany after successfully completing this program.
The first pathway is to enrol the Meister program. Meister means 'Master' in German as in Master Craftsman. You do not need working experience to transition from the final exam of your dual VET to Meister, but you will need to pass the final exam of their dual VET program.
Do take note that the Meister program is not a tuition-free program
The second option is to apply to study in a related field at universities You may also be required to sit for an entrance test arranged by the universities upon application. The requirements will depend on the universities you are applying to.
