Document attestation
Indian documents
For India, the APS India certificate handles academic verification; alongside it you'll typically need notarised copies and certified translations of your documents. We prepare the full set with you.
Proof of funds
Blocked account
Blocked account and APS timing are the two things to start early — we build both into your timeline.
We map your Class 12 and Bachelor's onto German requirements. Because most Indian applications now route through APS India, timing that step early is critical — we build it into your plan.
The route
What do a German Ausbildung involves
A German Ausbildung is a paid vocational training programme, typically 2–3.5 years, that mixes classroom learning with hands-on work at a company. You're paid a training salary throughout, and you finish with a recognised German qualification and strong job prospects in fields like nursing, IT, hospitality and mechatronics. Most Ausbildung places need B1–B2 German, so language is usually the first thing we plan together.
- 1
Language plan first
We map a realistic route to the B1–B2 German most Ausbildung roles require.
- 2
Find an employer & contract
We help you target fields with demand and secure a training contract with a German employer.
- 3
Recognition & documents
We prepare and attest your school and qualification documents for German employers and authorities.
- 4
Visa for vocational training
We assemble your training-visa file and prepare you for the embassy appointment.
