Assisted training flexible [AsAflex]

The AsAflex instrument has been available as a support service for young people and their training companies since spring 2021 with the preliminary phase and since autumn 2021 with the accompanying phase.

In this context, the previous offers of training-accompanying assistance [abH] and assisted training [AsA alt] will be merged to form flexible assisted training [AsA flex].
