Bürofachdiplom / Bürofachdiplom VSH: Training, further education, overview of providers, self-test

Das Bürofachdiplom ist die kaufmännische Basisausbildung, auf der aufbauend das Handelsdiplom gemacht werden kann. Das bedeutet, dass Sie in jedem Fall zuerst das Bürofachdiplom abschliessen und dann, sollten Sie weiterhin lernen und sich fortbilden wollen, den Handelslehrgang besuchen, bis Sie das Handelsdiplom erreichen.

Das Bürofachdiplom VSH (Verband Schweizerischer Handelsschulen) ist die erste Stufe der kaufmännischen VSH-Lehrgänge. Dieses Diplom verleiht kaufmännisches Basiswissen und erstreckt sich berufsbegleitend meist über ein Jahr. Aufbauend darauf kann das Handelsdiplom VSH erworben werden, welches das Bürofachdiplom voraussetzt. Dieses Diplom bietet Ihnen die Möglichkeit eine Tätigkeit beispielsweise als kaufmännische Sachbearbeiterin / als kaufmännischer Sachbearbeiter auszuüben oder mit weiterführenden Kursen den Lehrabschluss zum eidgenössischen Fähigkeitszeugnis EFZ zu erwerben.

The VSH Office Management Diploma covers the subjects German, English, French, Business and Society as well as Information, Communication and Administration.

The further training courses Office Management Diploma (as a first step) and the Commercial Diploma (building on the Office Management Diploma) are not recognized as fully-fledged commercial training like the Federal VET Diploma in Business Administration, but they are ideally suited as an additional qualification for people without a basic commercial education.

A VSH office management diploma or VSH commercial diploma (VSH - Association of Swiss Commercial Schools) is not the same as an apprenticeship to become an EFZ businessman or businesswoman and is not federally recognized. However, a VSH office management diploma or VSH commercial diploma offers a very good entry into a commercial career.

In addition to a minimum age of 18 years, a good knowledge of German (level B2/C1), knowledge of French and English and completion of compulsory schooling are required. Please contact the school of your choice directly for definitive clarification.

You can choose between different models for a VSH office management diploma course and thus complete both a part-time course and a full-time course. The advantage of the part-time office management diploma is that you can continue to work and earn money at the same time. In addition, what you have learned can usually be applied directly in practice.

Die Weiterbildung Bürofachdiplom VSH dauert in der Regel 1 Jahr.
