Primary Education: Training for elementary school teachers
Tips and decision-making aids for choosing an apprenticeship
Questions and answers
How long does primary education training take?
The duration of primary education training depends on the type of training or degree.
If the Primary Education training is designed as a course with the school's own certificate, then it can last a few days (often 2 - 10 days).
If it is designed as a postgraduate course at a Universities, for example, then it will take correspondingly longer. For a CAS, you can expect one semester, for an MAS two years.
It is best to contact the provider of your choice directly.
Can I take part in a Primary Education course and continue to work on the side?
This depends entirely on how the primary education course is structured or designed. If it is structured as full-time training, then probably not.
In most cases, however, primary education training is designed to be completed alongside your job, so that you can continue to work and therefore do not have to worry about a major loss of salary.
Who is primary education training aimed at?
The target group for primary education training is generally aimed at teachers and head teachers.
Further information can be obtained via the contact form of the respective school - quickly, easily and without obligation.
How much does a primary education course cost?
The costs for a primary education course are set by the schools themselves. They can therefore vary from provider to provider. A guideline value is CHF 12,000.
We recommend that you contact the provider of your choice directly and enquire about the costs.
Tip: Compare the offers and costs of different schools. Pay attention to what is included in the costs and what additional costs you can expect.
Does the Primary Education course end with a federally recognized qualification?
Whether the primary education training concludes with a federally recognized qualification, such as a Certificate of Advanced Studies, or with a so-called school certificate depends entirely on the training offered.
