| Ziel(e) / Inhalt: |
Our ÖIF German courses will prepare you for the ÖIF Certificate based on your language level (A1, A2, B1, B2).
The exam preparation courses are conducted by licensed examiners.
In accordance with the new Integration Act (October 1, 2017) the ÖIF certificates test both language skills as well as value and orientation knowledge (A1-B1).
The certificates are recognized when applying for a residence title (A1), residence extension to 3 years (A2), or EU permanent residence or Austrian citizenship (B1) for the first time.
We teach values and rules that form the basis of daily life in Austria and cover such topics as: Diversity and principles of living together, history and geography, language and education, world of employment and economy, housing and neighborhood, health system.
The exam preparation is important to us, i.e. the students will not only become familiar with the test format, but they will also practice the test several times under the watchful eye of a licenced examiner.
