Almost all of the educational offers listed here on Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch, such as courses, seminars, training courses, degree courses, postgraduate courses or other initial and continuing education, further training are in the field of adult education. Even training courses leading to a Federal Diploma of Vocational Education and Training (AFPE) can be found here for adults, as well as continuing education, further training with a Federal VET Diploma, Federal Diplomas from Colleges of Vocational Education and Training, Advanced Federal Professional Examination (AFPE), Universities of Applied Sciences and many more.

There are three options open to those interested in obtaining a Federal Diploma of Vocational Education and Training as a care specialist (FaBe) as an adult. On the one hand, there is catch-up training on the second educational path, in which you prepare for the qualification procedure (formerly the final apprenticeship examination) independently or in special courses. On the other hand, you can have your qualifications recognized in a validation procedure with several years of professional experience in childcare and complete the missing qualifications in courses. You will receive the Federal VET Diploma as soon as you provide proof of all the required skills, even without a qualification procedure. The third option available to you is the shortened basic training for care specialists, in which you attend vocational school and your training company within two years (apprenticeship contract required) and take part in the qualification procedure.
