German for work and professions

Courses for a specific profession: for doctors — preparation for the Fachsprachprüfung (FSP) of a state medical chamber, for nursing staff — for the telc Pflege exam, plus business German and courses for teachers. The exam and level you need depend on the profession and the federal state — check the recognition authority's requirement before you book.

Questions: German for work and professions

Which exam does a doctor need?
For the licence to practise, a doctor with a foreign degree needs the Fachsprachprüfung (FSP) of the state medical chamber, usually at C1; in some states telc Deutsch B2·C1 Medizin FSP replaces it. The courses here prepare for it — which one fits your state is on the course page.
Do these courses qualify for a visa?
An in-person course with at least 18 lessons a week on weekdays qualifies for a language-course visa — the badge on the card shows it. Evening and online courses do not.
Free of charge

A language plan: from your level to the university application

A PDF for your application date: how many weeks you need to reach the required level, when to take TestDaF or DSH, where a course is cheaper for the same result and what a student visa requires. A consultant prepares it for you.

  • Weeks needed from your current level to the required one
  • Exam dates and application deadlines for your semester
  • Courses that fit your budget, with the full cost
