Securing your nursing intake for 01.08.2027

Tabet und Knuf Trainings und Solutions GmbH places Abitur-qualified, German-capable nursing trainees from West and Central Africa (Togo and Cameroon), with a zero per cent dropout rate, achieved through intercultural coaching lived from the inside.

Why Tabet und Knuf?

Three things you can verify before you ever speak to us.

  • HRB 19065

    Commercial substance

    Your contractual partner is a German GmbH seated in Goch and entered on the register at Amtsgericht Kleve — not a foreign agency, not a broker without liability. Every commitment we make to you is made by a company answerable in a German court.

  • 16 years · 10 years in practice

    I walked this route myself

    I came to Germany from Central Africa 16 years ago, studied here, and have ten years of professional experience. I trained my own sister to qualify as a Pflegefachfrau in Germany. So I know precisely where a placement fails — and what carries it.

    Proof of concept

    Our trainees sit their state examination from December 2026.

The three-phase concept

Each phase has a fixed scope and a fixed owner. Whatever sits in our column leaves your desk.

Togo and Cameroon to Goch
  1. 100 % Abitur · B2

    Vorauswahl & language (pre-selection)

    100 % Abitur holders and a B2 certificate. The certificate must be in place by the start of training at the latest.

  2. § 81a AufenthG

    Bürokratie-Flatrate (administrative flat rate)

    We take over recognition of qualifications and the visa procedure in full.

  3. On site

    Onboarding & mentoring

    Continuous support on site, to prevent dropouts.

Our training partnership on the ground: the highest language competence from day one

A successful generalistische Pflegeausbildung stands or falls on language. Understanding specialist terminology, documenting precisely, and communicating with empathy at the bedside takes considerably more than a simple language certificate.

That is why we leave nothing about language preparation in Central and West Africa to chance. Tabet und Knuf Trainings und Solutions GmbH works on the ground in Togo and Cameroon exclusively with established, certified language institutes.

Our training programme in the country of origin covers:

  • Goethe-Institut · ÖSD

    Certified standards

    Our applicants complete intensive courses aligned exactly to the curricula of the Goethe-Institut and the ÖSD. Entry to Germany is guaranteed to take place with an official B1 or B2 certificate.

  • Specialist language module

    Medical GermanIn preparation

    To support the first weeks on a German ward as well as possible, we are currently developing a supplementary specialist-language module. In future it will teach nursing-specific terminology and the fundamentals of documentation while the trainee is still in the country of origin — terms such as “Pflegedokumentation”, “Infusion” or “Dienstwechsel”.

  • Ward conditions

    Simulated practice situations

    Through interactive language rehearsals we prepare our talents specifically for speaking with patients and colleagues under the pressure of a working clinic day.

Language level on entry

Measured against the Common European Framework of Reference. Certification is issued by the Goethe-Institut or the ÖSD, not by us.

Through this deep interlocking of language and professional context we minimise the run-up time in the German workplace and secure the quality of training from the first working hour.
