Weiterbildung im Alter: Was macht Sinn?

Further training in old age: what makes sense?

The driving factors behind the decision to complete further training are, for example, an interest in personal development, learning about new theories and approaches to solutions and consequently a broader understanding of (complex) interrelationships, broadening (knowledge) horizons and, finally, simply enjoying change. Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch is of the opinion that there is no age limit to the points mentioned here.

Regardless of the age at which you would like to complete your training or further education, the question of your goal is of essential importance.

  • What would you like to achieve with this training or further education?
  • Where do you see yourself professionally in the next three to five years?

On this basis, in addition to the training and further education already completed, a decision can then be made as to whether, for example, a Bachelor's or consecutive Master's degree (FH, Uni, ETH) with international recognition makes sense or whether a degree at postgraduate level (CAS, DAS, MAS, NDS-HF) or at higher professional education level (BP, HFP, HF) also offers sufficient career advantages. It may also be possible to achieve the desired professional goals with a course leading to a "school certificate".
