Any licensed professional who has completed a 3-year vocational training or a 4-year college or university program is eligible, as long as you are not residing in a country restricted by the German government due to staffing shortages.

We may sponsor certain language expenses, such as the B2 course and exam upon arrival in Germany. For candidates studying independently in their home country, there may be a language bonus upon deployment. Scholarship availability and coverage are at the discretion of Next Step Germany, with details communicated individually based on specific cases.

After completing our application form, you will speak with a Next Step team member to determine if this program suits your needs. If it does, you’ll need to focus on two key tasks: gathering and translating all necessary documents for your Qualification Recognition and passing your B1 exam while beginning your B2 studies in your home country. Next Step will handle the rest and provide support throughout your entire journey.
