Experiential educator: using experiences to compensate for educational deficits

Experiential education is being used more and more frequently and is often a good way of compensating for educational deficits in predominantly young people. Educational goals are achieved through experiences and sometimes extreme situations, such as climbing at a certain height.

In experiential education, children and young people are usually taken out into nature to experience something out of the ordinary. Experiential education is also used for the following conditions: deterioration of physical fitness, lack of care, lack of initiative and spontaneity and lack of human sympathy. Through physical activity, helping others and the dependence of one person on another, the social skills of young people and children are enhanced.

Training to become an experiential educator can be completed as a postgraduate course after graduating from a university of applied sciences and culminates in a school certificate. Would you like to find out more about the course? Then visit www.ausbildung-weiterbildung.ch for more information and to get in touch with the schools directly.

Questions and answers

The training to become an experiential educator is not a full-time course or a compact seminar, but a course in which the topics are covered in blocks over a period of almost two years. The training starts with a three-day introductory seminar, followed by a one-week basic course. The methods course, outdoor first aid course and training course each consist of three to six course days, while the self-study days, introduction to the project phase and project and coaching day each comprise one day. The training concludes with a three-day final seminar.

The training course for experiential educators imparts pedagogical and methodological qualifications that enable participants to carry out outdoor training and experiential education seminars after completing the course and adapt them to the respective target group.

Continuing education, further training to become an experiential educator is aimed at all those who would like to work in this field in the future or incorporate experiential forms of learning into their work. These can be teachers or social pedagogues, hiking guides or youth workers, adult educators or environmental educators. Participants must either have a pedagogical, psychological or socio-educational qualification or be currently undergoing such training, or have extensive experience in voluntary or professional work with children or adults.
