Ist es notwendig, dass ich vor der Unternehmensgründung eine kaufmännische Ausbildung mache?

Is it necessary for me to complete commercial training before starting a business?

Your professional training and experience will certainly play an important role in setting up a business and, above all, in running it successfully. If you do not have any commercial or business management skills, it would indeed be advisable to undergo further training in this area, but it is not compulsory. As you are probably already very busy with setting up your company, the preparations, your work and your private life, a distance learning course or correspondence course could also be an option for you, where you can learn exactly when you have time and leisure. Such a distance learning course can be completed as a crash course in one to two months while working, as a certificate course in six months or as an intensive study course in nine to twelve months. Such a course can teach you the basics of setting up a business, financing, accounting and law for business economists, but can also focus on other areas such as controlling, investment accounting, business administration, economics or corporate management.
