Professional recognition procedure for regulated professions in Germany, for all social professions- and health.

– What are regulated professions in Germany?

Vocational training in certain occupations in Germany is linked to recognition of professional qualifications. These professions are called regulated professions. Medical professions, for example, are regulated (doctors, Nurses, Physiotherapists, etc.) Legal professions or teachers.

For citizens from so-called third countries (not EU countries) an individual examination of the equivalence of the professional qualification by the competent recognition authorities of the federal state in Germany is required, as there are different training contents in the individual countries. If the content and duration of the

Training is given full recognition. If the training content is partially different, partial recognition can be achieved. Applicants can compensate for a lack of knowledge by taking an aptitude test or an adaptation course.
