Telekolleg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Telekolleg is an adult education offering that has made it possible to acquire an intermediate or advanced technical college entrance qualification in several German countries since 1967 . The Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation and the education and culture ministries of Bavaria and Brandenburg are responsible for and responsible for this educational offer. This is an extra-occupational education system consisting of television programs, written study material and regular class events, aimed at young adults who can gain higher qualifications through a combination of self-study and face-to-face teaching.

history

Start in 1967

Telekolleg I was initially only started in Bavaria on January 2, 1967, at that time still under the name “study program”, and originally only offered the opportunity to acquire the secondary school leaving certificate. In 1972 the Telekolleg II was added, which led to the technical college entrance qualification in two years. Telekolleg I was closed in 1984 due to a decline in demand. By then, around 22,000 people had acquired secondary school leaving certificate via the Telekolleg. Until 2002, the Telekolleg II was sponsored by the Ministries of Culture of the states of Baden-Württemberg , Bavaria, Brandenburg, North Rhine-Westphalia , Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland , which together with several third television programs were in charge. Initially, politics linked the Telekolleg with the goal of providing more education for the rural population. Housewives were also a target group. As an alternative to completed vocational training as a prerequisite for participation, anyone who has managed a family household for four years is still admitted to the Telekolleg.

Multimedia structure

In 2002 the Telekolleg II was replaced by the Telekolleg MultiMedial , which is organized by the Ministries of Culture of Bavaria and Brandenburg together with the Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation and which trains students to become a college entrance qualification in around 20 months. By the end of January 2007, according to Bayerischer Rundfunk, the Telekolleg had over 60,000 successful graduates who had completed the intermediate or advanced technical college entrance qualification. Since 2016, new productions for the Telekolleg and GRIPS have been run under the umbrella brand alphaLernen on the ARD-alpha website.

Current offers

With today's multimedia offerings, you can obtain the technical college entrance qualification within 16 or 20 months in the states of Bavaria and Brandenburg and in Bavaria also the secondary school entrance qualification within six months. The program leading to the advanced technical college entrance qualification comprises 350 programs in 14 subjects. At the beginning of 1967 the costs were 25 DM (today corresponds to around 48 EUR ), in 2017 they are around 335 euros for registration and textbooks.

Framework

A course lasts four trimesters and lasts 20 months including the final exams and 24 months with the recommended preliminary course. The so-called splitting is also possible, whereby the technical college entrance qualification is acquired after two courses. The prerequisite for participation is, among other things, completed vocational training or at least four years of relevant professional activity. Independent management of a family household is also recognized.

The Telekolleg is offered depending on the professional activity in the fields of technology, economics and social affairs. Participation in individual subjects for further education is also possible. The teaching content is conveyed via textbooks, accompanying television programs, websites and collegiate days, which usually take place on 56 Saturday mornings in two years (including preliminary course).

The preliminary course includes the subjects German, mathematics and English. Those interested in the "Middle Reife" course in Bavaria must complete this preliminary course. Single occupancy only for the preliminary course is not possible. The preliminary course is only available in combination with the advanced technical college entrance qualification and secondary school entrance qualification.

The tele-college broadcasts are broadcast on ARD-alpha , the education channel of Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation . In November 2016, new courses started at a total of 26 collegiate day schools in Bavaria and Brandenburg. The courses are accompanied online.
