Registration

To register for an integration course, you must come to our office in person and present a valid ID (e.g. passport or travel document).

If you receive support from the Jobcenter, please bring the corresponding entitlement with you. If you have an obligation to attend from the immigration office, please present it as well.

All documents must be presented in the original. If you already have a BAMF approval, please bring it with you when you register.

Regardless of your individual situation, we are required to carry out a placement test with every participant. This test helps us determine your current language level so that we can find a suitable course. Your registration for a course module depends on the result of this test. For participants without an entitlement, obligation or approval, the placement test currently costs 30 euros, payable directly. If you register, this fee will be offset against the one-time registration fee.

If you would like to register from abroad, please contact our office beforehand, as additional forms need to be completed. Please note that the requirements may vary from country to country. Please clarify this individually with the responsible German embassy in advance.

For your registration we need:

• Entitlement to participate (BAMF / Jobcenter)
• Passport
• B1 or DTZ certificate with result B1
• unemployment benefit notice, if applicable

If you do not have a corresponding certificate or your certificate is older than 6 months, we will be happy to carry out a free placement test with you.

You can find the exact course and module dates in the course schedule on our website.

In future, we want to put together groups at B2 and C1 level that are even more homogeneous in terms of ability.

It is therefore important to find out the language level of each interested participant before the respective course begins.

To attend a B2 course, participants show that they have already attended a B1 course or can present proof of a passed B1 exam.

To attend a C1 course, participants show that they have already attended a B2 course or have proof of a passed B2 exam.

Exam registration is only possible in person at our office.

For the A1–C1 exams, please bring an ID document, a pencil, an eraser and a pencil sharpener, as well as food and drink. Admission to Sprachakademie Karlsruhe is from 8:40 am (for A1, B1, B2, C1).

For the Test LiD (“Life in Germany” test), please bring an ID document and a blue or black ballpoint pen. The Test LiD starts at 2:00 pm.
