FAQs
You already give courses or lessons on a regular basis and are looking for support with administrative aspects?
With the Smart Bildungserk you can stabilise fluctuating incomes and reduce your entrepreneurial risk: at the end of each month you will receive a regular salary based on your assignments and access to public health insurance; income tax will be deducted and you will also pay into pension and unemployment insurance. Your assignments therefore cover all non-wage labour costs. The Bildungswerk's website will publish your teaching offers nationwide.
Are you receiving ALG I / ALG II?
If you would like to work with the Bildungswerk, you must take into account the rules regarding the permitted additional income. If you regularly work more than 15 hours a week, you cannot receive unemployment benefit. The Federal Employment Agency has summarized important information here (only available in German) and in an information sheet (only available in German).
You're a student or pensioner and would like to settle your additional income via the Bildungswerk?
Registered students are only allowed to work a maximum of 20 hours per week and have to pay attention to further restrictions (only available in German) so that they are still insured as students.
For pensioners, the regular age limit, the additional income limit, and the compulsory insurance must be observed in various cases. The German Pension Insurance has published an information brochure (only available in German) on this subject.
