This is the process where German authorities compare your nursing qualification with the German standard. In this video I walk you through the full process: how to apply, what documents you need, and what happens after you submit your application. There are three possible outcomes. You get fully recognized and can start working right away. You get a Defizitbescheid: a decision that lists the gaps in your qualification. In that case you have two options: complete an Anpassungslehrgang (adaptation course with practical placement) or pass a Kenntnisprüfung (knowledge test). --- 00:00 Introduction 00:39 What is Anerkennung? 01:45 Find the right authority 03:07 Prepare your documents 05:13 Submit your application 06:18 Feststellungsbescheid 06:31 Full recognition 06:54 Partial recognition 07:34 No recognition 08:14 Kenntnisprüfung/knowledge test 08:25 Anpassungslehrgang/adaptation course 08:51 Language requirements 09:43 Which language tests are accepted 09:57 Fachsprachprüfung 11:11 Recognition partnership 12:26 Processing time and costs
