In-company rehabilitation through retraining [IRU]

Solid vocational training is an important prerequisite for professional success and the best insurance against unemployment. With In-Company Rehabilitation through Retraining (IRU), we support you on your path to a new career.

You are completing retraining in a recognized vocational training program. To introduce you to learning, we offer you the opportunity to refresh your academic knowledge in a preparatory course (RVL). During the RVL, we will support you in selecting a retraining program appropriate to your health situation and work with you to find a suitable retraining company close to home.

During your in-company retraining, we offer career-specific support and are available to provide advice and assistance to you and your company. Retraining in a regular company increases your career entry opportunities.
