The program WeGebAU (Further Education for Low-skilled and Older Employees in Companies) is aimed at employees who do not have a vocational qualification or have not worked in their learned profession or in an unskilled profession for four years, as well as employees who are at least 45 years old.
With the Qualification Opportunities Act, this program of the Federal Employment Agency has been expanded. With this law, companies with more than 250 employees also have the opportunity to have their employees further trained through advancement or adaptation qualifications to maintain their employment.
The basic requirements for this program are an existing employment relationship that extends beyond the end of the further training measure, as well as the implementation of the qualification measure by an external, certified educational provider such as Learn and Speak Language Centers.
