Basisqualifikation für die Alphabetisierungs- und Grundbildungsarbeit. Die Fortbildung des Verbundprojekts „ProGrundbildung“ als Beitrag zur Professionalisierung

Given the current debate over qualifications and skills of teachers in adult education, the continuing education programme ìBasic qualification for literacy and basic educational workî developed within the framework of the joint project ProGrundbildung seeks to professionalise adult education teachers who work in or who want to work in the field of literacy and basic education. The authors present the concept of continuing education and discuss the data on personnel structure, motives for undergoing continuing education and quality aspects of continuing education surveyed within the framework of the evaluation of the qualification. Finally, it is shown what contribution continuing education can make to professionalisation of literacy and basic education.
