As a rule, German language skills at level B1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) are required for qualified vocational training.
\nThis applies if the educational institution has not already tested your language skills or if you have not completed a preparatory German course. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Your livelihood must be secured for the entire duration of your stay.
\nThis means that you must prove that you have at least 903 euros per month (as of 2024) at your disposal.
\nIn the case of school-based vocational training, this proof can be provided via a blocked account or a declaration of commitment.
\nIn the case of in-company vocational training, the salary serves as proof.
\nIf this is not sufficient, you can make up the difference by providing additional proof, such as a blocked account or a declaration of commitment. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The approval of the Federal Employment Agency (BA) is obtained for in-company vocational training.
\nThis is done as part of an internal official procedure for which you do not need to take any further steps. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The vocational training visa allows you to stay in Germany during your training and to work up to 20 hours a week in a part-time job.
\nIf you are training in a company, you may also take part in preparatory German courses. <\/p>\n

After successfully completing your vocational training, you have the opportunity to stay in Germany for up to 18 months in order to find qualified employment.
\nTo do this, you must apply to the relevant immigration authority for a residence permit to look for a job in accordance with \u00a7 20 Para.
\n1 No. 3 AufenthG. <\/p>\n

Graduates of an assistant or helper training course in a healthcare or nursing profession have the opportunity to obtain a residence permit to look for a job for up to 12 months, with an option to extend for a further six months.
\nDuring this time, you may take up any employment in order to secure your livelihood.
\nIf you are successful in finding a job, you can then apply for a residence permit for qualified employment without having to leave Germany. <\/p>\n

After two years of gainful employment in Germany, if all requirements are met, you can obtain a settlement permit in accordance with \u00a7 18c Para.

If you would like to take on more responsibility after your training, there are various opportunities for further training in Germany.
