With an Income Share Agreement, you can focus on your Bootcamp at Pipeline Academy, while CHANCEN eG takes care of your tuition fees. In exchange, you commit to affording future generations with the same opportunity. Once you start working in a company or found your own startup, you start making income-based repayments to finance the training fees of future generations.
The Income Share Agreements (ISA) ensures equal access to education with a fair financial solution, irrespective of your current financial status.
CHANCEN eG makes it possible for you to study as you wish. During your bootcamp, CHANCEN eG pays your tuition fees and you can concentrate fully on your course.
After you graduate, you pay back a pre-determined portion of your income to the solidarity community - so, unlike a loan, there is no fixed debt burden.
Repayment does not begin until you exceed the minimum gross income of 27,000 euros, less income-related expenses. Therefore repayments are only made if you can really afford it.
At the same time, your contribution is capped and ends automatically when you reach the set maximum limit. Therefore, a high income does not mean an extremely high repayment.

Since the launch of Pipeline Academy our main priority has been making our first-class education and starting a promising career in data engineering accessible for everyone. Meaningful partnerships like the one with CHANCEN eG bring us closer to this goal by enabling high-potential participants to join our school and come up with their tuition once they’ve landed a job after the bootcamp.
During your studies, we take care of your tuition fees, partially or completely. When you graduate, income-based repayments are made to CHANCEN eG over a 5 year period. Should your annual income be less than 27,000 euros of relevant income, your repayment is suspended and postponed. The relevant income is the positive income (gross) reduced by income-related expenses. The flat-rate deduction for self-employed persons is 16.4%.

General interest rates are changing a lot at the moment due to the central banks’ reaction to inflation. As a result, the costs of CHANCEN eG are also changing significantly. CHANCEN eG may therefore have to change the conditions at short notice.
The first step towards your future is the decision to complete a Bootcamp at Pipeline Academy. With the ISA you have the freedom to choose your desired course, without worrying about the tuition fees.
As soon as you have been accepted for your Bootcamp at Pipeline Academy, you can simply apply for support from CHANCEN eG. Complete the application form and select a date for your interview. Should you be a suitable member for our solidarity community, we will offer you a contract. Please note that we do not require collateral or a guarantor.
You can completely focus on your Bootcamp. With an ISA, your tuition fees are paid directly by CHANCEN eG to Pipeline Academy. Once you have graduated, you can take your time in deciding what the next steps on your career path will be. Maybe you would like to travel or do an internship? Learn more about the ISA.
With your first annual income that exceeds 27.000 Euros, you start repayments to CHANCEN eG, set at a fixed percentage of your total income. To calculate your individual annual repayments, your annual tax return statements are disclosed to us. Should you take a sabbatical or choose to study further your repayments are put on hold until you can afford to pay them again. Here you can download some repayment examples and learn further about repayment.
Your repayments ensure future generations also have access to fair financing.
Your repayments are discontinued once you have reached the end of the repayment period, irrespective of the sum of money you have paid back. You are welcome to continue being a member of CHANCEN eG and engage in educational funding opportunities for future generations.
