This B2 Job-Related German Course (DeuFöV) is designed for people who already have B1-level German and would like to improve their German for work.
The classroom-based course consists of 500 teaching units (UE) and includes a bridging module to support the transition from B1 to B2. The aim is to reach B2 level according to the CEFR, with a particular focus on communication and German language skills needed in the workplace.
Who can attend free of charge?
The course is free of charge only if you have a DeuFöV authorisation (Berechtigungsschein) from the Jobcenter or Federal Employment Agency (Agentur für Arbeit).
If you are unemployed or looking for work, contact your Jobcenter or Agentur für Arbeit and ask for a DeuFöV authorisation.
If you are employed, completing vocational training or going through a professional recognition procedure, you can contact the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) directly:
