Analyse der Inhalte erziehungswissenschaftlicher Studiengänge im Hinblick auf eine spätere Tätigkeit in der berufsbezogenen Weiterbildung

Abstract

Little is known about the qualifications of trainers in further vocational education. Some hold a degree in educational sciences. At the same time prospective trainers seem to be part of the target group of programs that specialize in adult education. The study focuses on which contents are intended in these programs and whether they could qualify for a later occupational activity as a training professional. For this purpose the course descriptions of 32 programs were analyzed and 10 responsible program managers were interviewed. While topics of the programs mainly cover human resource- and further education management, the German education system, history, basic concepts and theories of educational sciences and adult education, microdidactic practical knowledge, which relates to the implementation of courses, seems to be subordinate. The responsibles of the programs confirmed the informative value of the course descriptions concerning the contents of the programs. They only saw a limited preparation for the trainer-job through the programs. (English) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
