Training vs Ausbildung

training / education

'Ausbildung' and 'Training' can both mean that you develop skills. However, 'Ausbildung' is a longer and usually official learning path for a profession. It has a clear goal and often lasts several years. 'Training' means regular exercises or also a single practice session, for example in sports or at work. You can also have training as part of an 'Ausbildung', but not every 'Training' is an 'Ausbildung'. The words can be confused when it is about professional learning. 'Ausbildung' fits the whole professional path, while 'Training' fits practicing specific skills.

Visual example for Ausbildung
