Continuing education, further training to become an experiential educator is aimed at all those who would like to work in this field in the future or incorporate experiential forms of learning into their work.

The training to become an experiential educator is not a full-time course or a compact seminar, but a course in which the topics are covered in blocks over a period of almost two years. The training starts with a three-day introductory seminar, followed by a one-week basic course. The methods course, outdoor first aid course and training course each consist of three to six course days, while the self-study days, introduction to the project phase and project and coaching day each comprise one day. The training concludes with a three-day final seminar.

The training course for experiential educators imparts pedagogical and methodological qualifications that enable participants to carry out outdoor training and experiential education seminars after completing the course and adapt them to the respective target group.

The course to become an experiential educator concludes with an internal school certificate after proof of performance. However, it is also possible for people who work or would like to work in adult education to acquire an additional qualification with the SVEB 1 certificate "Conducting learning events with adults", which is recognized throughout Switzerland.
