Nursing & Healthcare
Nursing, elderly care, medical assistance
Ausbildung is Germany’s dual vocational system — a two-to-three year apprenticeship with no tuition fees, where you are paid a salary from your first month. We handle the placement, the language, the visa and the move.
It is not a course you pay for. It is a job with a training contract — classroom theory at a vocational school, paid practical work at a German company, and a nationally recognised qualification at the end.
Your employer pays you a salary throughout, and it rises with each training year.
The training is funded by the state and your employer. Your costs are language tuition, documents, the visa and our fee.
On passing your final exams you are a recognised skilled worker, able to move to a work permit and onward toward permanent residency.
Four stages, and we tell you at each one whether it is realistic to continue.
We audit your education, age and circumstances against what German employers actually accept — and say plainly if the answer is no.
Structured preparation to B1, or B2 for healthcare, plus mock interviews with real employer questions.
Certificate recognition, contract review before you sign, and the full embassy application file.
Pre-departure briefing, accommodation help, and registration, banking and insurance once you land.
Germany recognises 325 training occupations. These are the areas where Indian applicants are being hired now.

Most agencies quote you the best-case figure. The real number depends on one thing: whether your employer is bound by a collective agreement. We check that before you sign.

For company-based dual Ausbildung, the 2026 requirement is a training allowance of at least €1,048 gross per month. Where your contract meets that, it can serve as your proof of funds.
Many consultancy websites still tell applicants a blocked account is always mandatory. For this route, that is often simply not true — and it is worth knowing before anyone asks you to lock away a year of living costs.

Not every profile can be placed. We tell you at the assessment stage, not after you have paid and spent a year on German.
Consultation and processing charges are stated before you commit. No stage-by-stage surprises.
We place through our own relationships with German employers and vocational schools, coordinated from Noida — so nobody adds a margin between you and the training company.
Over the last two years, into paid training contracts with German companies.
If an agency will not answer these plainly, that tells you something.
Yes, and there is no way around it. Your vocational school and your workplace both operate entirely in German. B1 is the working minimum, and healthcare roles generally require B2. Anyone promising you a placement without German is not being straight with you.
There is no legal upper age limit for an Ausbildung. In practice, employers hire most readily between 18 and 30, so that is the range we can place most reliably. Older candidates are not impossible, but we will tell you honestly how much harder it will be.
It depends entirely on whether your employer is bound by a collective agreement. In firms that are, first-year pay averaged €1,117 a month gross in 2025. Firms that are not can legally pay the statutory minimum, which is €724 a month in 2026. Pay rises each training year in both cases. We tell you which kind of contract you are being offered before you sign.
Often not. For company-based dual Ausbildung, the 2026 requirement is a training allowance of at least €1,048 gross per month — and if your contract meets that, it can serve as your proof of funds. Many sites still tell applicants a blocked account is always mandatory. For this route, that is frequently untrue.
You qualify as a recognised skilled worker. Most trainees are kept on by the company that trained them, and you can convert to a standard work residence permit and begin the route toward permanent residency. Retention is common but not automatic — it depends on your performance and the company.
The Ausbildung itself has no tuition fee — training is funded by the state and your employer. What you pay for is language tuition, document translation and recognition, the visa, and our consultation fee. We put every figure in writing before you commit to anything.
