The Internet portal www.visit-hannover.com/en/specialists answers lots of questions about training, university courses and careers. It also provides information and contact details about apprenticeship and job exchanges as well as vocational training colleges and career advisory centres. The portal also lists university courses, further training opportunities, combined work/training schemes and gives useful information about setting up in business.

The personal work-life-balance plays an important role in deciding where to make your (new) home: Hannover combines big city flair with a unique proximity to nature. With green areas making up 11.36% of the city’s surface area, the capital of Lower Saxony is one of the greenest cities in Germany. The Royal Gardens of Herrenhausen, Eilenriede Forest, Deister Ridge as well as Maschsee and Steinhude lakes are ideal places to relax and pursue leisure activities.

The opera and theatre sections of Hannover State Theatre are considered among the best in Germany. Experience nature while enjoying all the advantages of a big city: This is what Hannover is all about and the key to the high quality of life enjoyed here.
