Good to know
Your questions before starting.
Is the coaching free for me?
Programme costs may be covered if the approved programme is suitable and written approval is obtained before it starts. The voucher, programme and responsible provider must match. We do not start coaching agreed as funded without approval.
Am I guaranteed an AVGS voucher?
No. The responsible employment agency or Jobcenter decides on AVGS coaching in each individual case. Our review of your enquiry is not a funding commitment.
How is this different from the start-up grant?
AVGS funds a programme. The Gründungszuschuss is a separate benefit supporting the start of full-time self-employment. Eligibility is assessed separately.
Who delivers a funded programme?
The approved programme, responsible training provider and scope are clarified before it starts. This page is for contacting McErtas Business Solutions and is not a government website.
What should I clarify before an AVGS enquiry?
Discuss your start-up plans and support needs with your contact at the employment agency or jobcentre. If you already have a voucher, its objective, duration, validity and regional conditions matter.
Is online AVGS start-up coaching possible from Hof?
McErtas Business Solutions is based in Hof and offers guidance for ventures in Hochfranken and online across Germany. Whether a funded programme can take place online depends on the approved offer, voucher conditions and authorisation.
When can funded coaching start?
Only after the responsible programme provider checks the conditions and the employment agency or jobcentre authorises participation in writing. An enquiry on this website replaces neither the voucher nor the authorisation.
