More than half of the participants in the training course for trainers achieve a wage increase of up to 20% after completing the course.
This does not seem to be too much. However, it could play a role that at least 300 hours of teaching experience during the previous 4 years is required for admission to the federal professional examination "Instructor". Graduates of the instructor course have therefore already been "in the business" for several years and may have already received a corresponding salary adjustment earlier.

23-year-old Kyoko works in the back office of a large print shop in Schaffhausen. She enjoys the work involved in the production of print products. She is very popular with her team colleagues and her supervisor thanks to her independent way of working, her good organizational skills in planning the work on the individual printing machines and her assertiveness. Kyoko's service orientation and communication skills are well received by customers and business partners. Kyoko has her roots in Japan, as her mother is of Japanese descent. Although she grew up mainly in Switzerland, she learned the language at home. After her commercial apprenticeship, Kyoko also traveled to Japan and intensified her Japanese language skills with a private teacher. This trip further increased her enthusiasm for the Japanese culture and language. Kyoko would like to teach Japanese in order to pass on this enthusiasm to other people. To this end, she is doing further training as a course instructor with an SVEB certificate and then taking the professional examination to become a trainer. After obtaining her federal certificate as an instructor, Kyoko hopes to gain a good position in adult education and even become self-employed in the medium term. In this way, she could turn her roots and her passion for her country of origin into a profession.
Financial benefits of further training for trainers
As a trainer, Kyoko will receive CHF 1,133 more per month than before and will therefore have at least CHF 534,000 more at her disposal by the time she retires than if she had not done any further training.
As this theoretical calculation does not take into account any further salary increases, promotions or interest on savings, the salary can still increase significantly.
