Experience diversity: new courses and renovations at the VHS Weiden-Neustadt
The Weiden-Neustadt adult education center brings a breath of fresh air to its course offer and relies on a variety of new topics. From drone flights to first aid for dogs to aerialyoga - the new semester promises to be extremely versatile.
Innovative offers and new course ladder
With over 550 courses, the adult education center offers a huge spectrum for everyone interested. Aerialyyoga in particular has gained popularity last year and attracts many participants. "We not only have new courses on offer, but also qualified lecturers," reports Johanna Senft, marketing manager of the VHS. The encouragement to the VHS shows that learning places such as these are highly in demand in the community and are of great importance for personal development.
An important initiative for dog owners
The "First Aid Course for Dog owners" on October 12 is particularly highlighted. Under the direction of veterinarian Dr. Hubert Reindl, who brings his German-short hair Arthur, learn dog owners how they can handle their pet in emergencies. "There are almost no comparable offers in our region," says Stefanie Freitag, head of the health and fitness department. This initiative shows how important health and well -being of pets become in the community.
Hobbypilot: Drone course at the VHS
An additional highlight is the course "Around the drone flight", which starts on September 18. Interested parties learn everything about the safety and functionality of drones. "The participants can also fly practically on the Wurzer O’Clichen-Halle," explains Katharina Eichstätt, head of department of the workshops. These seminars show how modern technologies not only enrich leisure activities, but also open up new professional perspectives.
Challenges through monument protection
While the VHS presents itself innovatively in the course offer, the old building is also brought up to scratch. Coat and new lighting are partially restricted by the monument protection regulations, which makes the renovation a special challenge. "We have to be very careful, we cannot implement everything as we want," explains Senft. Nevertheless, it remains optimistic that the work will be completed by the end of September, which should improve the learning environment.
Lack of teacher as a challenge for the future
Despite these progress, the VHS still faces the challenge of finding sufficient specialists. "We have difficulty winning new lecturers in the craft areas," explains Senft. This topic illustrates the general trend in the field of education that many professionals are very stressed in their main job and find it difficult to take on additional tasks.For all those who are interested in the new offers of the adult education center, the new VHS magazine is included in the new day on August 31 and offers an overview of all courses. Fortunately, online registrations can also be made on the VHS website, which facilitates access to education.
The Weiden-Neustadt adult education center shows with its current range of courses that it not only promotes education, but also responds to the needs of the community and covers a wide range of interests. These developments are an important step to strengthen local education and to promote social engagement.
