The European Social Fund (ESF) and the Amberg-Sulzbach job center each support 45 percent of the course for reintegration into the labor market. ISE takes care of the rest. Experience to date shows that there is great demand on the local labor market in the area of geriatric care.
With this successful qualification, participants have a very good opportunity to get a job subject to social insurance in this profession, as they often lack the school qualification required for training at a nursing school.
The need for such specialists increases from year to year, as course leader Thomas Klein emphasized. “Nurses are desperately needed. The chance of placement is very good,” assured Klein at the end of the course. Education coordinator Peter Blendowski was pleased about this successful tenth measure and emphasized that “it was difficult for many participants to switch their lives to full-time classes and go back to school.”
The ESF nursing qualification measure included approximately 1,100 hours of theory and four weeks of internship.
Ralf Doschat, division manager at the Amberg-Sulzbach job center, emphasized the good training at ISE. “It’s nice that so many people persevered,” he said appreciatively. He was confident that the graduates would find a job and no longer have to come to the job center.
