Basic German and Integration Course

Adults and, if applicable, young people aged 16 and over who have not lived in Switzerland for long, are familiar with the Latin alphabet, but have little or no knowledge of German.

The courses are organized with childcare for children until they enter kindergarten.

Participants must be willing to learn independently outside of the course to support the learning process.

German language support is based on the fields of action and scenario-based teaching according to fide and on the needs of the participants, incorporating their own resources. A teaching aid serves as a guide.

Before registration, a free placement test is offered on-site so that the person can be assigned to the appropriate course.

All participants receive a certificate of attendance at the end of the course if they attend regularly (at least 80%). Depending on the language level, a fide language certificate or a telc exam can also be completed.

The room will be communicated to you via SMS.
