history
In 1980, a branch of the Lippstadt evening grammar school was set up in Arnsberg. In 1987, due to a council resolution of the city of Arnsberg, this branch office became the evening school center of the city of Arnsberg. At the same time an evening secondary school was opened. In 1991 the evening school center was renamed the Sauerland-Kolleg Arnsberg. The third course, the college, was established. The location of the school changed frequently. At the time, as a pure evening school, classes were held in the Laurentianum grammar school . This was followed by the move to the neighboring former Wedinghausen monastery . Then it was located on the Mühlenberg in Hüsten . Since 2007, classes have been held in a separate building at Berliner Platz 3. As the first school in Arnsberg, the Sauerlandkolleg is a school of diversity. In doing so, she campaigns against homophobia and transphobia and for the acceptance of different ways of life. In recent years, the school has been heavily involved in the integration of refugees. At times there was a separate collection class. The aim is to cooperate with and merge with the Unna training college. In 2020 Christoph Hesse, head of the Unna further education college, was seconded to the Sauerland college in Arnsberg with a half-post. At the beginning of the 2020/21 school year (August 12, 2020) Christoph Hesse became the acting headmaster of the Sauerland-Kolleg.

School program
The Sauerland-Kolleg Arnsberg sees itself as a school that enables adults to obtain school qualifications even after their first school career. The students have very different requirements. It is therefore very important for this school to use various measures to bring as many students as possible to a degree. These measures include:
- Independent learning in modules
- Adult-appropriate teaching
- Digital support of the learning process, e.g. B. Abitur-Online
- Advice and support in all life and school situations
- Focus: psychology and natural science
- Language training for migrants
- Remedial classes in mathematics, English and German
- Openness to individual ways of life
Evening middle school
The evening secondary school leads to all middle school qualifications, such as secondary school leaving certificate and technical college certificate . The lessons (20 hours per week) take place in the morning or in the evening. The course begins with a phase of learning in modules. Here students can work independently on learning modules according to their respective previous knowledge. As soon as the modules have been successfully completed, the transfer to the second semester takes place. After two more semesters, the students take the central examination of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia in order to acquire the secondary school certificate (technical college entrance qualification). Students must be at least 17 years old and marginally employed.
Evening grammar school
The evening grammar school is an educational program that enables working adults or family people to acquire a high school diploma in addition to their daily obligations. For this purpose, the students attend the Abitur-Online course at the Sauerland-Kolleg. They attend classroom lessons on two or three evenings (this corresponds to 50% of the teaching time) and in the distance phase work on the subject matter independently on the moodle learning platform. There they submit tasks according to a learning plan and find all the relevant teaching materials in a library. There are also other work options, such as group work or the creation of glossaries.
The students must provide evidence of a completed training, two years of employment or equivalent periods. You must be at least 18 years old and currently employed or unemployed, or prove that you have a family household.
College
As a full-time school form, the college leads adults to the Abitur or technical diploma. Lessons of 30 hours a week take place in the mornings. School attendance usually lasts three years and can be funded according to BAFöG .
The students must have completed training, two years of employment or equivalent periods of employment and be at least 18 years old.
particularities
- Modularization: Independent learning in the first semesters of evening secondary school
- Abitur-Online: Around half of the subject matter is acquired through self-study. The work materials, assignments, tasks and learning plans required for this are made available online via the Moodle learning platform . Lessons take place at the Sauerland College on two to three evenings a week. There, together with the teachers and fellow students, the subject matter developed at home can be deepened and questions can be clarified.
