Standbeine der Professionalisierung. Der „Qualifikationsrahmen für Lehrende“ und das „Kerncurriculum EB/WB“

Main pillars of professionalisation. The ”qualification framework for teachers” and the ”core curriculum adult education and continuing education” Here two initiatives are being compared, which want to contribute to the professionalisation of the continuing education area. The ”qualification framework for teachers” is a German derivate of the European Qualifications Framework. It creates a grid in which the manifold qualification possibilities for teachers of the continuing education area can be made comparable. The ”core curriculum adult education and continuing education” originates from an initiative of the Section German Association for Educational Science (DGfE). It determines those content fields that are necessary in a university reform in the frame of B.A. and M.A. courses of study, in order to secure the knowledge and the action competencies for the professional field of adult education and continuing education. Both basic approaches are complementary and are aiming at competence orientation.
