This professional development course for newcomers and career changers is just right for you if you want to deepen your pedagogical skills for working in primary schools in a practical and compact way.

Education, care, and upbringing in primary schools present a demanding task for everyone involved. Children (and their families) of primary school age need to be recognized, understood, and adequately supported in light of their current developmental stages, challenges, and individual circumstances. This qualification program will build upon your existing knowledge and skills to develop and expand your competencies for pedagogical work in primary schools.
