Study plan for the knowledge test (Kenntnisprüfung)
and medical German

AMBOSS supports foreign-trained physicians coming to Germany

The AMBOSS platform not only provides well-founded answers to questions of everyday medical practice, but also supports more and more foreign-trained physicians on their way to obtaining a medical license (Approbation) in Germany.

For the recognition of medical qualifications acquired abroad, an equivalence and/or knowledge test must be passed. Sufficient knowledge of the German language is also a requirement. With AMBOSS, medical terms can be learned and repeated - as well as current treatment recommendations according to German guidelines.

For participants in the oral-practical knowledge examination (Kenntnisprüfung), we also provide a study plan and offer the use of AMBOSS for one year at half price.
