Scope and content:: This is a rather small collection, more or less catalogued at item level, consisting primarily of enrolment requests, in the form of handwritten letters, for business training schools and courses throughout the Sibiu district. It appears that there were several small schools and evening course offerings even in some smaller localities and villages. There are also some administrative papers such as lists of students and reports. At least one request, item 141 from 1910, testifies to the enrolment of a Jewish student. This item is a request by the factory owner Heim Schublach of Sibiu for the enrolment of his daughter Hermine Schublach, as well as for the enrolment of Ilona Kimpel of Turda, in a course. It does not specify which factory Schublach owned.
