In October last year, an ECDL course began at the ISE language and vocational training center in Amberg, which was expanded to include knowledge of Linux and network technology. The course participants were both part-time and full-time employees who began the course with a wide range of previous knowledge. For course leader Max Schobert, this posed an organizational challenge because the lessons had to be designed in terms of time and content so that all course participants could grasp all the training content and ultimately pass the final module exams.
The center of the ISE in Amberg
A year ago, ISE Sprach- und Berufsbildungszentrum GmbH carried out the first qualification for carers in accordance with Section 87 SGB XI. At this point in time, many nursing homes did not yet agree to this innovation or were still in negotiations with the nursing care insurance companies about who should pay for the care staff. Ms. Daubert-Siegler, head of nursing services at the Heilig-Geist-Stift senior center, took an early interest in the graduates of the first course. Despite initially poor forecasts, the Bürgerspitalstiftung was one of the first to hire two carers per care facility. Half a year has passed since then. Reason for the management of the ISE and the course leader at the time to seek a conversation with Ms. Daubert-Siegler.
