Previous training in the sense of this provision is not every previous education, but only the last preceding education. Even if you do several training courses at the same time, training support is only provided for training. The trainee then has to indicate for which training he applies for training support.
4. Whether or not you receive BAföG for this second education does not depend on whether you have already received BAföG in the first training: The decision according to BAföG § 7,2 is independent of whether training support was or could be used for the first training.

If such an examination does not provide a condition for admission or is not provided for at all, the training with the actual scheduled termination is deemed to have been completed as a vocational qualification. If the trainee has finally failed the final exam of the first training even after repetition, there is no entitlement to further training according to BAföG § 7,2.
7. Further training must continue in the same direction: An education leads on in the same discipline if it conveys additional knowledge and / or skills from the same material knowledge field.
