The care sector is facing an increasing shortage of skilled workers. As a result, nursing agencies, hospitals and care facilities are recruiting more and more nursing staff from abroad who do not yet possess sufficient German skills when they start work.
Particularly in the nursing sector, adequate German skills are an indispensable quality for day-to-day work on the ward or in a care facility. Subject-specific medical terminology, conducting telephone calls or conversations with colleagues and patients, as well as written records, must be mastered when working as a nurse.
KERN AG Training offers foreign nursing staff courses in technical German at different levels, exclusively tailored to the nursing sector and fulfilling the requirements of the nursing profession. On request, we also offer German classes on-site at the care facility or hospital.

Nursing staff that must prove their language skills by means of certification are also granted the opportunity to complete a telc examination. The telc certificate German B1-B2 Pflege is specially designed for nursing staff. As an alternative, we also offer the more general telc certificate German B2.
If desired, suitable preparatory courses for the telc-certificate can be taken which teach the participants everything they need to successfully complete the examination. The preparatory course covers all the essentials, including examination content and format, and even strategies that will ensure you pass the telc examination.
Learning a new language is always challenging at first. This is exactly where we’d like to help you! KERN AG Training is exactly the right place for anyone looking to improve their German skills for a nursing profession. We are an experienced provider of language training for numerous languages, including German as a Foreign Language. The conveyance of specialist knowledge and medical terminology is one of our core competences. With work-related German courses such as German for Nurses, we are creating the framework for efficient language training for international nursing staff.
Advanced German skills are especially valuable in elderly care. Complex topics and terms are common in the area of medicine. A language barrier makes handling these topics difficult. In addition, many older Germans do not know any foreign languages and are thus obliged to communicate in their native German. Knowing German thus makes it easier to treat patients, but also significantly helps communication with doctors and other medical personnel as well. German for Nurses is thus a direct contribution towards a positive coexistence and professional care.
Such courses teach international nurses specialised medical terminology, but also provide useful language knowledge for everyday use. The acquired language skills help nurses with integrating into their jobs and their new everyday life in Germany.
Thanks to our advanced methods such as e-learning or blended learning, we are also able to offer courses such as “German for Nurses” online. This enables students to develop their language skills flexibly at their own pace and according to their own individual requirements. Whether in a German intensive course or when taking the first steps towards learning German, KERN AG Training provides for a pleasant learning atmosphere. We emphasise a learner-friendly approach to the subject and rapid success for foreign nursing personnel.
We accompany you from the first steps until the examination. The course content includes:
