What are the advantages of talent development?

There are schools and courses to promote specific or general talents for children and adults.

Important advantages are

  1. It's never too late to promote talent - but it's also never too early. Strength-based educational programs are available from daycare to adult education.
  2. Promoting talent also means becoming aware of your strengths and weaknesses and learning to deal with them. An important asset for the rest of your life.
  3. Encouraging children in their talents gives them a path to success and satisfaction.
  4. Thanks to tailor-made training programs, young people who invest a lot of time and energy in their sporting and artistic careers can also obtain school and professional qualifications. This gives them access to the "normal" world of work at any time.
  5. On the way to the KV-EFZ, young sports and art talents acquire various recognized intermediate qualifications and diplomas such as the VSH office management diploma and commercial diploma, the ECDL international IT certificate and language certificates (BEC, DELF, First).
  6. Professional support for talented children is often a great relief for parents.
  7. In addition to tuition costs, the course fees for some full-time schools also cover services such as childcare during off-peak hours and lunch.
  8. Some schools offer sibling discounts if more than one child from the same family attends their classes.
  9. Some cantons subsidize the training of young sports and music talents, e.g. by contributing to housing or school costs.
  10. Some schools have scholarship programs, e.g. to support particularly high-achieving and independent students.
