Our upcoming preparation courses for Fachsprach- and Kenntnisprüfung

Government Funding for your Approbation in Germany
Germany is currently experiencing a shortage of qualified medical professionals, and the government actively supports international doctors seeking Approbation.
One of the key ways this support is provided is through the Bildungsgutschein — an educational voucher issued by the Agentur für Arbeit that can fully fund your preparation courses. Our Combo Course for the Fachsprachprüfung and Kenntnisprüfung can be taken with 100% government funding through a single Bildungsgutschein enabling you to complete both required preparation stages without financial burden.

Fachsprachprüfung AI Simulation
In addition to our doctor-led exam simulations, you can also benefit from our AI-powered Fachsprachprüfung Exam Simulation.
Practice both doctor–patient and doctor–doctor communication in a realistic, AI-driven exam environment. Conduct an anamnesis interview with an AI patient, assess symptoms, formulate a suspected diagnosis, and present the case to an AI senior physician, who will ask follow-up questions just like a real examiner.
Choose from 25 different doctor-patient scenarios featuring patients of various ages and genders across a wide range of medical specialties. These include, but are not limited to, emergency surgery, general practice, rheumatology, neurology, gynecology, and pulmonology. After each simulation, you will receive detailed feedback based on the official Fachsprachprüfung assessment criteria, helping you identify your strengths, target your weaknesses, and build total confidence for the real exam.
