When
planning our activities, the main focus is on a concrete and explicit
analysis of the educational requirements. The analysis comprises
the needs and requirements of the target group and is repeated
and reviewed periodically.
-
The
educational projects are based on analyses of participants' needs
by taking into account
each person's individuality
as well as on the requirements of clients, funding parties
and the involved
Partners
and are continually reviewed and adapted to the changing
underlying conditions.
-
The
conditions for the carrying out of our activities are negotiated
and discussed with all the involved
parties.
-
The
information provided is transparent, complete and clear. We choose
the means best suited to the
addressees by taking into
account
their language and cultural backgrounds.
-
We
support persons unaccustomed to education in analyzing their expectations,
understanding
their
potential, acknowledging
their
resources and abilities, in orientating themselves
occupationally and as a result
in being able to select the offers best suited
to their aims.
-
By
continually evaluating the reached goals, the impact and the satisfaction
of
participants,
we consequently
work on improving
the
quality and the efficiency of educational
measures. Accordingly,
we use systematic procedures to evaluate
the implemented educational measures
and compare the achieved results with
the projects' general goals.
-
All
employees in all functions are involved in the quality control
process
and its further
development,
with the goal of optimizing
the internal organizational processes
through their participation
and their
motivation.
-
In
order to ensure the transparency of our training centers' quality
of activity, we work
with external
certification institutes
and strictly
observe the standards stipulated
by the funding
institutions.
-
Only
through the ongoing training and continuing education of employees in cultural,
methodological
and professional
matters
can the quality
of adult education be controlled
and developed further. This
further
training
lies within
the foundation's
area of responsibility.
-
The
only means of ensuring quality development is through
continual,
consequently organized
efforts in
the fields of research,
development and innovation. We endeavor
to consolidate, discuss
and exchange
our experiences
within and outside
of our organization.
-
Organizing
adult education activities
in an intercultural
context requires
a flexible organization that can swiftly
react to changes,
varying underlying
conditions and
requirements as well
as to changes in
the demand for
training and
in the working
conditions.
