KOMPASS Funding at AgileLAB

High-quality learning without financial barriers – up to 90% public funding for solo self-employed professionals

As a solo self-employed professional, you know how essential continuous learning is to stay relevant and resilient. At the same time, investing in high-quality training can feel risky when time and resources are limited.

This is exactly where the KOMPASS funding program comes in – and where AgileLAB supports you end-to-end, so you can focus on learning while reducing financial risk.
What is KOMPASS?
KOMPASS – “Compact Support for Solo Self-Employed Professionals” is a German public funding program initiated by the Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs (BMAS) and financed through the European Social Fund Plus (ESF Plus).

Its goal is to help solo self-employed professionals strengthen their professional, entrepreneurial, and future-oriented skills through targeted training and qualification.
What the program offers:

  • Up to 90% subsidy for training costs
  • Maximum funding of €4,500 per qualification
  • Simple application process via certified KOMPASS advisory offices
  • Funding applicable to selected AgileLAB trainings and certifications

  • work primarily as self-employed (main source of income)
