From 1980 to 1999

  • On April 1, 1980, the company opens a geriatric care school in Bad Griesbach, which, under the direction of Karl-Heinz Edelmann, has been further developed with further technical and vocational schools, a specialist academy for social pedagogy as well as further education and training opportunities to form the KWA education center - since 2012 at the new location Parish churches.
