What it is
AZAV (Akkreditierungs- und Zulassungsverordnung Arbeitsförderung) governs the admission of providers and training measures to employment-agency funding. The audit is carried out by a Fachkundige Stelle accredited by DAkkS, on the basis of SGB III.
Approval covers both the provider and, in most cases, the specific measures offered. Without AZAV, a federal training voucher cannot be used with that provider.
Who it concerns, and why
Providers that want to train jobseekers or employees with a Bildungsgutschein must be approved. Companies that buy training on their own budgets are not required to hold it.
The public Kursnet catalogue lists admitted measures. That is the reference register, not EuroSchool.
What EuroSchool does with it
For a German provider, EuroSchool produces the functional documents of the file (contract, attendance, statement) following local law, without citing the French Labour Code and without attaching a Qualiopi logo.
The AZAV mention appears only if the permit has been declared and verified. EuroSchool is not a Fachkundige Stelle.
What it is not
AZAV does not open the French CPF. Qualiopi does not open the Bildungsgutschein. There is no mutual recognition. A EuroSchool document is not a Zulassungsbescheid.
Frequently asked questions
- Does AZAV replace Qualiopi for a French provider training in Germany?
- No. To sell with German public funding, the local approval is required. Qualiopi is not enough.
- Where can I check that a provider is AZAV-approved?
- With the Fachkundige Stelle and on Kursnet. EuroSchool displays the mention only if the seller has supplied a verified permit.
