Do you want to support children with increased support needs on their individual path and open up opportunities for them?
Our training program to become a social education assistant equips you with all the essential skills for professional work with children. With a focus on schools and inclusion, you will learn to support children with various disabilities safely and sensitively in their daily lives at daycare and school. Through practical, work-integrated training, you will be qualified to take on tasks related to the care, education, and upbringing of children with and without disabilities within pedagogical and multi-professional teams.
New from summer 2026 is an additional focus on the field of schooling. This is our response to the growing need for social education staff in school settings.
