Funding for Working Professionals
Professionals often face the challenge of advancing their careers and improving their qualifications to keep pace with the demands of the job market. Financial assistance helps support continuing education and expand career prospects. It is therefore worthwhile for professionals to consider possible financial assistance in order to advance their careers and prepare themselves for future challenges.
Don't stand still – keep growing
Don't just keep your qualifications up to date; actively work on your professional development. Secure the following benefits:
Broaden your expertise
Specifically targeted continuing education measures enable you to deepen your specialist knowledge and gain qualifications in new areas.
Professional development
With additional qualifications and skills, you can broaden your career prospects and qualify for more demanding positions.
Competitiveness
In a constantly changing job market, it is important to remain competitive. Continuing education can help you increase your competitiveness and score points in the job market.
Personal development
Continuing education not only offers professional advantages but also promotes personal development and self-fulfillment.
What opportunities are available to you?
There are many different types of financial aid available, which vary depending on the federal state (Förderung der Bundesländer). We have created an overview on our website that is worth taking a look at.
Submit a request to your employer
As an employee, you can submit a request to your employer to cover the costs or subsidize continuing education. Many companies support the professional development of their employees and offer financial support for continuing education measures.
It is therefore worthwhile to talk to your employer about the possibilities of covering the costs or subsidizing continuing education and, if necessary, to submit a request. Employers are often interested in investing in the professional development of their employees in order to improve their qualifications and strengthen the competitiveness of the company.
Tax deductibility
Employee
Under certain conditions, employees can claim expenses for continuing education as tax deductions. Professional development expenses can be claimed as income-related expenses on your tax return if they are work-related and connected to your current or desired occupation.
These include, for example:
Course fees
Travel expenses
Accommodation costs
Teaching materials
It is important that the training serves to maintain or improve professional knowledge and skills.
Employer
Employers can claim the costs of continuing education as business expenses and thus reduce their tax burden. This applies both to the professional development costs of employees and to the entrepreneur's own continuing education costs.
In principle, employees and employers should clarify the exact tax regulations with a tax advisor or the relevant tax authority to ensure that continuing education costs can be deducted correctly and in a tax-optimized manner.
Bildungsgutschein
This is where the education voucher (Bildungsgutschein) comes into play again. If you can no longer perform your current job due to a mental or physical disability and would like to reorient yourself, it may be possible to finance continuing education with a training voucher.
The requirements for funding with a Bildungsgutschein are assessed individually and determined in a personal consultation with the Bundesagentur für Arbeit or the Jobcenter. It is important that continuing education is necessary to secure your job or to prepare you for a new professional activity that is better suited to your health limitations.
Through targeted continuing education, you can expand your professional skills and open up new career prospects that are better suited to your current situation.
