How to get Bildungsgutschein

Hi, I am unemployed for over a year and I would like to attend a bBootcamp with a Bildungsgutschein. I have an appointment next week but the course starts five days later my appointment at Arbeitsamt. Just be sure can anyone list all possible requirements they will ask for me to submit beforehand. Also what are the odds that I can easily get this coupon with a husband earning above the average? Thank you.

Hi @gokced ,

happy new year and welcome to our forum!

For the appointment for Bildungsgutschein at Jobcenter, it is important to show them why a further training (Weiterbildung) will be crucial for increasing your chance of finding an employment. It is recommended that you bring the following documents to your appointment:

  • an overview of your job applications so far
  • information about the training you wish to attend
  • job offers and vacancies that include the qualifications you would be able to attain through the training (the more the better)

I am not sure if you can start the course just five days after your appointment at Jobcenter. Once you receive the Bildungsgutschein, you can redeem it at the training center of your choice, then Jobcenter needs to give you the final confirmation that they will pay for the training. Afterwards, you can start with the training. I hope that you can start as soon as you planned and it is good that you want to prepare all the documents you'd need for the appointment.

Your husband's earning doesn't play a role in this procedure.

I wish you good luck with the training and let us know if you have any further questions.

Best wishes
