About us
Aspiration and Expertise
With our help, you can grasp challenges as opportunities
In international comparison, the German health care system is considered one of the best medical care systems. It stands out as the growth engine in Germany. 5.7 million employees generate 391 billion in turnover, accounting for 11.7 per cent of the nation’s gross domestic product (as of 2019). Meaning that the sector has a greater weight within the overall economy than, for example, mechanical engineering.

Medicine is a matter of trust Further education even more so!
The health care system is Germany’s growth engine. It is the source of the most significant impetus for progress and employment. The health sector is considered one of the largest economic sectors in Germany, with rapid growth figures.
Medical care in Germany sets standards and requires constant reform processes to maintain the status quo or meet future challenges.
As a player in the health sector, one has to rise to this development. Anyone who wants to be professionally successful in the health sector today must – in addition to their actual qualifications in medicine and pharmacy and nursing and insurance – also master the rules and modes of operation of health economics and management. By doing so, you can demonstrate your skills to patients or hold your own in interaction with superiors, colleagues and negotiating partners.
