Foreign employees; advice and assistance with integration

Foreign professional qualifications can be recognized in Germany. The recognition advice centers can help you find the relevant recognition office, check that the necessary documents are complete, find funding options and identify training opportunities.

The local employment agency or job center can provide help with finding a job or training position or with unemployment. The Bavarian state government supplements the work of the employment agencies and job centers by funding training acquisition officers for refugees and job mentors, who also provide support with integration into training and work.

Language is the key to integration into work. The integration courses and vocational language courses form the federal government's overall language program. The vocational language courses (BSK) are a broad, needs-oriented range of courses for integration into the labor market. Building on the integration courses, they prepare migrants and refugees for the world of work in Germany. In addition, so-called Job-BSK courses can be used to learn German flexibly and practically while working.
