Recognition of foreign qualifications: why tracking makes the difference
Whether a professional from abroad may work in Germany often depends on recognition of their qualification. For regulated professions such as nursing it is mandatory; for non-regulated occupations it is usually a prerequisite for a skilled-worker visa. Depending on the occupation, different bodies are responsible — state authorities, chambers (IHK FOSA, chambers of crafts) or, for university degrees, the Central Office for Foreign Education (ZAB).
Every procedure has its own documents, deadlines and intermediate steps: certified translations, equivalence assessment, possibly an adaptation course or knowledge test. Without central tracking, this is exactly where weeks are lost.
Qualification tracking in TalentSure records the status of every application as a milestone in the candidate profile — visible to employer, partners and candidate, with deadline alerts and a clear owner for the next step.
Frequently asked questions about qualification tracking
Which recognition procedures are covered?
Professional recognition for regulated professions (e.g. nursing), equivalence assessment for vocational occupations (e.g. via IHK FOSA or chambers of crafts), and degree assessments for university qualifications via ZAB and anabin.
Who can see the recognition status?
The employer, the partners involved and the candidate — each with role-based access. Every side knows which documents are missing and which step comes next.
What happens if only partial equivalence is granted?
An adaptation course or a knowledge test follows. These steps are tracked as separate milestones with dates in the profile.
Does TalentSure submit the application?
The platform structures and tracks the procedure; the application itself is submitted by the candidate, the employer or a commissioned partner, depending on the procedure and jurisdiction.
