IS THERE FUNDING FOR COACHING?

How to Get Your Coaching Funded with an AVGS

The path to achieving your next career step often starts with the right support – and that’s exactly what the Activation and Placement Voucher (AVGS) provides. If you are in a phase of professional transition, currently seeking employment, or considering a career change, the AVGS offers targeted support through professional coaching. The costs are fully covered by the Employment Agency. But how do you get this valuable voucher, and how can you effectively use it to advance your career?

 

​

Step One: Contact Your Employment Agency

 

The journey to funded coaching usually begins with a conversation at your local Employment Agency or Job Center. Here, you can discuss with your advisor what kind of support you need for your professional development and securing a job. If you are already registered as a job seeker or are in a transitional phase, you can explain that coaching would help clarify your career goals or improve your application skills.

The Application: Simple and Straightforward

 

Once you’ve discussed your need for coaching with your advisor, you can apply for the Activation and Placement Voucher (AVGS). The agency will assess whether you meet the funding requirements—such as being unemployed or actively seeking work—and whether the coaching will help improve your professional prospects. The application process is straightforward and typically processed quickly.
