Annotation

Students aiming to obtain the "Teaching Qualification for Vocational Schools" initially study the six-semester Bachelor’s degree course in Vocational Training, in which a professional specialisation is combined with a general education teaching subject. This is followed by the four-semester Master´s degree programme in "Teaching Qualification for Vocational Schools" (academic degree: Master of Education) with the same subject combination. A new application is required for the Master’s degree course. A Master's academic degree is a prerequisite for admission to the traineeship (postgraduate course).

The courses provide knowledge about the theoretical fundamentals of social education, the target groups and fields of action of social education, basic educational questions, methods of socio-educational research and the didactics of social education. In addition, the programme covers important topics in the fields of early years learning as well as in relevant related disciplines.
