For the past three years, the Internationaler Bund (IB) and its International Migration Services (IMS) have been working hand in hand with the Alexander von Humboldt Cultural Institute in Medellin, Colombia.
Our joint project involves teaching the German language using a so-called hybrid system, in which participants initially take part in the courses online and then come to Medellin, the second largest city in Colombia, to attend classes in person.
The language courses are explicitly aimed at nursing professionals. Through our partnership, we give nurses from all over the country the opportunity to learn German and gain access to fair and well-paid jobs in Germany.
Recently, our International Migration Services (IMS) representative, Verena Schneeweiss, had the honour of being visited by the Academic Director of the Cultural Institute in Medellin, David Graaff, at the Internationaler Bund (IB) offices in Frankfurt.
