Jobcenter contact form
You can use this online application form to send a message to the Erlangen Jobcenter.
User-friendly and digital: simply fill out this online contact form directly via your internet browser. Whether you're on the move or at home.
With entry-level training, you can prepare young people who have already decided on a specific profession for an apprenticeship in your company. As part of a paid internship, they are introduced to the future training content and can put their skills to the test.
You can apply for a monthly allowance of up to EUR 247.00 plus a flat-rate share of the average total social security contribution for the internship remuneration.
The content of the internship should be based on the future training occupation. You should also aim to take on the trainee in your company.
Eligible for funding are
- Training applicants registered with the Employment Agency with limited placement prospects for individual reasons who do not have a training position even after the nationwide follow-up placement campaigns,
- training seekers who are not yet fully ready for training, and
- those with learning difficulties and socially disadvantaged training seekers
This also applies to young, employable beneficiaries who receive basic benefits for jobseekers from the Jobcenter.
Funding generally begins on October 1 of each year at the earliest. It is generally possible to start the measure early from August 1.
- The internship must:
- last between 4 and 12 months.
- be remunerated and covered by social insurance.
- The intern must belong to the group of people eligible for support. This must be checked by the Jobcenter.
- The trainee must not have previously been employed in your company.
- The introductory training must not take place in the company of a spouse, partner or parents.
- If vocational school attendance is compulsory, the trainee must attend vocational school and be enrolled in the relevant specialist class.
You must apply for the grant for entry-level training in writing:
- Specify the internship content, duration, remuneration and suitability criteria for the participants and report the open offer to your chamber and your employment agency.
- You will then receive information about a provisional funding commitment.
- If your prospective trainees do not receive any benefits from the job center, ask them to register with the employment agency. This is the only way to check whether they belong to the eligible group of people.
- If the applicant is eligible for support, you will conclude an EQ contract with him or her. You can download the sample contract or ask your chamber.
- Apply to your employer service or the job center for an internship allowance before the start of the internship. Enclose a copy of the EQ contract.
- Then register the trainee with the health insurance company and the employers' liability insurance association.
- You will receive a written notification from the job center as to whether the subsidy will be granted.
- If your applicant is required to attend vocational school, you must register him or her at the vocational school and preferably in the relevant subject class before the internship begins.
- If your trainee requires support during the introductory training, he or she should coordinate this with the Jobcenter and apply for this support if required.
There is no deadline. You must apply for funding before the introductory training begins. The applicant must be registered at the vocational school before the start of the internship, provided that vocational school attendance is compulsory.
