What is the QCG?

The Qualification Opportunities Act was introduced in 2019 and aims to support and financially subsidise employers in the further development of their employees.

What does that mean in concrete terms? This means that the employment agency contributes to the training costs and the employee’s salary on a pro rata basis. The target group is primarily employees who are affected by structural change and would like to orientate their careers more towards the future.
