Who gets the Bildungsgutschein?
Anyone registered as unemployed, on Bürgergeld, or at risk of unemployment can apply at the Agentur für Arbeit or the Jobcenter. What matters is that the course improves your chances of a job, which your adviser judges at the appointment. The voucher can cover the fees and often travel and childcare; unemployment benefit usually continues during the course. The full guide, with the application in five steps.
Why only two providers?
We show providers whose offer we have read ourselves and that may pay Big World Jobs for a referral. A comparison with other providers is in the guide. Big World Jobs is not a training provider or an employment agency; only your Agentur or Jobcenter decides on funding.
