readjustment insurance/career change insurance
Explanation:
Both expressions are used. However, I would go for readjustment insurance.
"The government has also announced that the establishment of "readjustment insurance" (omställningsförsäkring) for employees will soon be examined."
http://www.eiro.eurofound.eu.int/2000/08/feature/se0008157f....
"If unemployment insurance can be upheld as an active and clearly defined system of readjustment insurance, the labour market will be able to function more efficiently and periods of unemployment will be shorter."
http://www.iaf.se/iaftemplates/Page.aspx?id=144
"Mobility can be encouraged by existing instruments within education and labour market policy and by new instruments such as career change incurance (omställningsbidrag)."

agree  Adrian MM. (X): though not the 'official translation', retraining sounds more intelligible than 're-adjustment'.
