German is part of this route
Language is the first step towards vocational training and a nursing career in Germany. German is already one of the languages we teach: while you prepare for your Ausbildung you can take your lessons with us and follow your classroom progress and your application from the same place. Alongside general German we give weight to professional language — the everyday communication you will have with patients and colleagues.
