Summary

Are you ready to kick-start your tech career but worried about financing your journey? No worries! Le Wagon Germany offers several financing options to ensure that nothing stands between you and your dream career in tech, whether it’s web development, data analytics, or data science and AI. In this guide, we’ll explore how you can finance your education at Le Wagon Germany, making quality tech education accessible to all.

Option 1: Public Funding

Get your bootcamp 100% financed by the German government

Le Wagon’s bootcamps are AZAV certified, making them eligible for public funding through the Bildungsgutschein program. With this program, you can participate in our bootcamps for free, covering your entire tuition fee.

What is a Bildungsgutschein?

A Bildungsgutschein is an educational voucher issued by the Bundesagentur für Arbeit via the Agentur für Arbeit or the Jobcenter. The aim of the Bildungsgutschein is to upskill people with the right skills to conquer the job market!

What does it cover?

The Bildungsgutschein covers the full course fee, plus potential extra costs like the daily transportation tickets to come to our campus.

Good to note: You would still be eligible to receive your full unemployment benefits (ALG I or Bürgergeld) for the whole duration of the course.

Who can get a Bildungsgutschein?

First, you are living in Germany permanently, plus one of the following: You are currently unemployed, you are at risk of losing your job, you are working limited hours due to Kurzarbeit. There are additional situations that could qualify you for a Bildungsgutschein. Reach out to our advisors to learn more.

How do I apply for a Bildungsgutschein?

If you’re a legal resident registered in Germany and unemployed (or soon to be), you may qualify for the Bildungsgutschein provided by the Bundesagentur für Arbeit or the Jobcenter. The application process may take some time, so it’s essential to apply early to secure your spot. To start the process after being registered with the Agentur für Arbeit/Jobcenter, you need to reach out to your consultant. However, we know that German bureaucracy can be overwhelming sometimes so we are happy to support you by explaining your process, helping you prepare for your conversation with your consultant, and answering questions that arise during the process.

Option 2: Upfront Payment

Invest in yourself and enjoy a discount

For those ready to invest in their future, our upfront payment option offers a 5% discount on tuition fees. By paying the full balance upfront, you not only minimize the overall cost but also demonstrate your commitment to your learning journey.

How it Works: Simply pay the entire tuition fee at the time of enrollment to qualify for the 5% discount. Additionally, in Germany, you can deduct repayments and educational costs from your taxes, making this option financially appealing.

Eligibility: Available for all applicants to Le Wagon in Germany.

 

Option 3: Pay as You Learn

Spread out your payments with Alma

Managing your finances while studying is made easier with our pay-as-you-learn option. You can spread out your tuition payments over four months with Alma, our lending partner, allowing you to focus on your studies without worrying about upfront costs.

How it Works: Upon enrollment, pay the €2,000 deposit, and once the bootcamp commences, start paying the remaining amount to Alma over four monthly installments.

Eligibility: Residents with debit/credit cards issued by select European countries are eligible for this option.

 

Option 4: Instalments

Spread your payments over 12 months

Our instalment plan allows you to spread your tuition payments over a maximum of 12 months, providing flexibility and ease of payment. With just a €2,000 deposit required upfront, you can embark on your learning journey without immediate financial strain.

How it Works: Pay the €2,000 deposit upon enrolment and start paying the remaining amount to our partner Quotanda over 12 monthly instalments once the bootcamp begins.

Eligibility: Legal residents of the EU can opt for this instalment plan.
