Detailed description
In order to have your professional advancement training funded by the Advancement BAföG, you must, among other things, provide evidence of your prior qualifications (for example, completed first vocational training, professional experience or bachelor's degree).
The document required to prove your pre-qualification is “Form Z”. Form Z is an attachment to your application for advanced BAföG. You must use this Form Z to confirm that you already meet the technical admission requirements for advanced training or can meet them by the time of the exam.
The body responsible for the confirmation is the one that also administers the final examination for the degree you are seeking. With the confirmation of your pre-qualification, you can then apply for the advancement BAföG. Different bodies are responsible for this depending on the federal state.
