"Bergisch Gladbach's Programme Guide Embraces VHS Tape Format"
The adult education center, VHS Bergisch Gladbach, is gearing up for a new semester starting on Monday, September 8, 2025. The new program promises a broad and varied range of courses, catering to a multitude of interests and needs.
In line with its mission to provide educational opportunities for all, the VHS offers courses covering politics, society, environment, health, art, culture, creative design, languages, youth, integration, women, literacy improvement, and vocational training.
For those seeking to improve their German language skills, the VHS offers certificate exams in German (B1/B2), recognised proof of language skills required for German citizenship. Additionally, the VHS department for women focuses on equality, career development, and self-care, with some offers being exclusive to women to raise awareness of women's issues.
Health-conscious participants can benefit from courses like "Hatha Yoga for Relaxation", where a subsidy from health insurance is available for those who attend more than 80% of the course sessions. Regular participation in health courses serves prevention and enhances overall well-being.
Food enthusiasts can look forward to courses such as "Autumnal Delight Fusion: Kenya meets Europe" and "Tea-Tasting & History", offering an opportunity to experience global connections through cuisine.
For those interested in practical skills, the VHS offers vocational training courses on communication, creative work techniques, and career reorientation. Noteworthy workshops include "Discrimination - soon to be socially acceptable again?" and "Learning to Negotiate Successfully".
Courses to improve reading and writing skills are offered free of charge. New integration courses are also available, making education accessible to newcomers.
