Adult education center
Service Description
Adult education centers (VHS) are public adult education institutions that are run by the administrative districts and independent cities in Thuringia.
The Thuringian adult education centers act on a public mandate and are not subject to ideological or commercial interests. As an independent part of the education system, they cooperate with a wide variety of providers in order to combine the content of their courses with the aims of adult education and in this sense make a significant contribution to the social, intellectual and cultural development of citizens.
The 23 adult education centers in Thuringia offer a comprehensive range of general, political, cultural and vocational education in the form of lectures, courses, seminars, workshops, study groups, discussion groups, study trips, etc. for general or continuing education. The education offered by adult education centers covers the basic areas of politics - society - environment, culture and design, health, languages, work and occupation as well as basic education. Among other things, the adult education centers also offer the opportunity to obtain school-leaving qualifications through second-chance education and thus open up access to further qualifications.
