The FSP – course (to prepare for the professional language exam) lasts 12 weeks, 552 attendance hours, incl.supervised self-study in the afternoon and individual coaching (FSP – simulations).
Without a work permit, you are generally not allowed to complete an internship in a clinic. After completing the FSP course, our colleague Ms Arnold von Deutschland Academy would be pleased to help you to find an internship.

If you are being promoted, because you in Germany are registered as seeking employment, then the course costs you nothing. Please ask us, we are happy to advise you.

4. Visa
For the 12-week main course, a Schengen visa is sufficient. You can request this from your embassy without any problems. Prerequisite is an invitation, which you get after receiving payment from us.
For a longer stay you need a national visa. So if you want to do the basic course first and then the main course, you need a national visa.

For this purpose, the Foreign Office provides information that you can view here.
After receipt of payment, we issue you with a certificate, which you present to the German Embassy. We are an institute with an internationally recognized certification. Therefore, there should be no problems with visa issuance.
