What retraining courses are available?
Retraining is a training measure that you undertake either for health reasons, for example because you are no longer able to carry out your previous job to the full extent, or because you are seeking a professional reorientation for personal reasons. In the event of a health impairment, in certain cases you have the option of having the IV cover the costs of these training measures, provided, however, that you have completed an apprenticeship or your previous income has been reduced by at least 20 percent due to your health impairment. If this is the case, you can work with the IV to find a suitable measure that can secure you a new job in the long term. Such retraining measures can be, for example
- Attendance at a Matura school, University of Applied Sciences or Universities
- Vocational training
- Re-training in your previous profession
- Instructions for auxiliary work
- Familiarization with a new area of responsibility
