The Ludwig Erhard Vocational College for Economics and Administration (own abbreviation: LEB) is a school with around 3,100 students in the Nordstadt district of the federal city of Bonn , in the statistical district of Ellerviertel .
history
The school was founded in 1908 as a “compulsory training school” (“municipal compulsory training school”) for craftsmen and traders. In 1911 the industrial school (today's Heinrich Hertz Europakolleg ) and the commercial school (today's LEB) were separated. Since 1960 the latter has been located at the current location of the LEB next to the Robert Wetzlar Vocational College. The school was called “Commercial Educational Institution” until 1999, then, like all schools of its kind in North Rhine-Westphalia, it became a vocational college . The current name of the school refers to Ludwig Erhard , the co-founder of the concept of the social market economy , and was introduced in 1999. On September 24, 2010 the Ludwig-Erhard-Berufskolleg celebrated its 100th anniversary.
building
The building on Kölnstrasse , in which the LEB is housed, was built between 1957 and 1960, it was planned by Joachim Hammerstein in the municipal building department of Bonn. It was originally created as a commercial educational institution together with the educational institutions for women's professions to the south, today's Robert-Wetzlar-Berufskolleg (RWB). The LEB building is on a lower floor level and is connected to the RWB via a uniform garden design. The building is a reinforced concrete frame construction with so-called concrete ribbons that by single brick veneered be supplemented wall parts.
The four-storey, partly five-storey school building with a recessed top floor consists of two parallel staggered structures, which are connected by a lower transverse wing including the main entrance. The ground floor is designed as an open, glazed hall. There is a distinctive kink of the southwest wing from the main axis of the complex. The green spaces also serve as a playground and are bordered by the Rheindorfer Bach (also Mondorfer Bach ) north of the building .
The Sportpark Nord is 300 meters northeast of the LEB and can be used by the school. The two gyms belonging to the school are also used regularly by associations in the city.
“The extensive building complex is experiencing a necessary revitalization [due to the generous green spaces]. In terms of urban planning, the overall facility plays a not unimportant role in the unappealing environment. (...) The slight buckling of the southwest wing from the main axis of the system remains somewhat incomprehensible. "
Educational work
The school offer includes a business high school (since 2001), a technical college , a higher commercial school , a two-year commercial school and a one-year commercial school. Seven dual training courses are offered (bank clerks, clerks for insurance and finance, tax clerks, clerks for office communication, administrative clerks, medical assistants and dental assistants). The technical college entrance qualification can be acquired together with the vocational school qualification .
