Professional Recognition (UBA)

Have you ever wondered how you can attract international specialists to your company, what legal regulations apply and what you need to pay close attention to as an employer? 

The project serves as the point of contact for companies and, together with 30 Chambers of Commerce and Industry, offers the free matching service “UBAconnect”, where interested companies can get to know international skilled workers. They have already received the partial recognition of their professional qualifications, and are looking for companies to support them with their post-qualification. 

The UBA project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
