Annotation

The degree courses in Vocational and Work-Based Learning convey extensive knowledge of vocational and work-based learning and their fields of activity in theory and practice. This includes specialist and systematic contents, decision-making skills relating to pedagogy, didactical methods and specific vocational fields, as well as interdisciplinary and communications qualifications. The corresponding Master's degree is recognised for graduates as equivalent to the First State Examination for the Teaching Qualification at Vocational Schools by the Hessian Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs. This is linked to the authorisation for the application for a traineeship ('Referendariat'). Information and events for prospective students are available at: www.uni-giessen.de/studium/askjustus
