You must be a registered student at Kempten University of Applied Sciences to enrol for this course. Signing up via MeinCampus commits you to joining the course. By doing so, you agree to pay the course fee by bank transfer if you are allocated a place. Should you relinquish your place or not attend the course after the second enrolment round has been completed, we reserve the right to insist that you pay the full fee for the course. You can withdraw from the course via MeinCampus at any point during the enrolment rounds.

Courses can only be held if enough participants sign up. The university reserves the right to cancel a group if this is not the case. Should it already prove infeasible after the first enrolment round to run a group, or should you not be allocated a place if the course is over-subscribed, you can sign up for other courses that still have free capacity during the second enrolment round.

Should (substantiated) rescheduling of classes on your degree programme cause clashes with the course on Professional and Vocational Education , please contact us without delay to discuss the matter.

The timing of the examination (at the end of the semester) will be announced in good time during the course. A pass is awarded once all the work required has been completed. (You can find more information in the relevant Moodle course.)

Following the examination, students will be informed of the result via email, after which they can collect their certificate.

Kempten University of Applied Sciences issues confirmation that students have passed the AdA examination. Students must collect this in person (or authorise someone else to act on their behalf) from the Centre for General Elective Studies and Languages.

If you wish, you can present this confirmation to the Swabian Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK) and they will issue their own certificate (costing you € 50) (§ 6, para. 3 EVOgW + 7AEVOgW), which testifies to the parity of the university’s examination with the IHK’s own and thus officially confirms the holder’s qualification to act as a professional and vocational trainer. You will be given further information about this process when you collect the confirmation issued by the university. A pass on the AdA course cannot be included in the university’s degree certificate (e.g. as an elective subject).

The course fee for students at Kempten University of Applied Sciences is: € 150

Please transfer this sum (once you have been admitted to the course, and no later than the examination date) to the university’s account:

It is vital that you cite all the above details in the reference (particularly the PK number) so that we can identify your payment and properly attribute it. You will not be admitted to the examination if the fee has not been paid in time. All participants are given the “Training & Career” booklet (“Ausbildung & Beruf” – in German), which can also be used as an aid in the written examination. In addition to the course fee, a further charge (approx. € 10) can be made for your own printed copies of course material (not included in the course fee).

Enrolments for the “Train the trainer” course are completed in MeinCampus – Classes – Show Course Catalogue – Centre for General Elective Studies and Languages – Additional Courses – Professional and Vocational Education.You can only enrol online . You cannot enrol in writing.

Instructions are posted in MeinCampusDoku. (Section: Enrolment via the Course Catalogue) Allocation of places is not influenced by when you enrol. The places available are allocated randomly amongst everyone who has applied during the enrolment period, according to faculty, or in line with the stage that students have reached based on previous achievement in their studies.

If any problems ariseduring the enrolment rounds, students should immediately alert the contact person for General Elective modules .
