Annotation
The consecutive Bachelor’s/Master’s degree programme "Vocational Training and Work-Based Learning" complies with the rules of the Hessian Teacher Training Act (HLbG) to ensure that Master’s graduates are on an equal footing with state-certified teachers.
The Master’s degree is equivalent to the First State Examination for Vocational Teaching (L4), meaning that graduates can first apply for the subsequent traineeship and, after its completion (Second State Examination), are entitled to teach at vocational schools and vocational grammar schools.
