Every integration course consists of a language course and an orientation course.

  • Special integration courses: These courses consist of 900 lessons in the language course and 100 lessons in the orientation course. They are available for

    • young adults who are no longer required to attend school (youth integration course)
    • Immigrants with literacy needs (literacy course)
    • People who have not learned the Latin alphabet (secondary literacy course)
    • People with an increased need for language support (support courses)
    • People with disabilities (e.g. deaf people, visually impaired people)
  • Intensive courses: These courses are suitable if you find language learning easy and want to and are able to achieve the course goal particularly quickly. An intensive course consists of 400 lessons in the language course and 30 lessons in the orientation course.

Integration courses are available as full-time and part-time courses.

Before you can take part in an integration course, you will need a certificate of eligibility. This is your participation permit with which you register with an integration course provider.

If you want to take part in the integration course voluntarily, you must first apply to the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF). You will then receive a certificate of eligibility.

If you are entitled to take part in an integration course as a late repatriate or as a family member, you will receive the certificate of eligibility from the Federal Office of Administration (BVA).
