According to the Federal Act on Disability Insurance or DI (Bundesgesetz über die Invalidenversicherung), youths and young adults with impairments or disabilities are entitled to support from the disability insurance so that they can complete a VET programme. The DI used to support young people doing a “Practical training” (cp. 1.8.7). But other young people who are doing a regular VET programme may also need the support of the DI, for example if they are dependent on specific measures on account of a physical disability. An example is young people with a hearing impairment who attend vocational school classes at the Berufsschule für Hörgeschädigte BSFH (Vocational School for the Hearing-Impaired) in Zurich.
