Procedure for finding seminar providers

It is not easy to find the right seminar or further training course among all the different educational opportunities on offer. Check out the different options and how they can help you advance professionally and satisfy your personal interests. The longer a seminar lasts, the more important it is to find the best choice for you. Important aspects when searching for a seminar are

  • Possible certifications
  • Quality of the seminar organizers' documents
  • Prerequisites for participation in the seminar
  • References from other seminar participants
  • Reputation of the seminar organizer and qualifications of the trainers
  • Costs incurred
  • Seminar environment such as rooms, atmosphere and equipment

Compare seminar offers in detail

Lists help to compare seminar offers in detail. To do this, you should write down the most important comparison criteria for each provider. These could be the following, for example:

  • Prerequisites
  • Educational objective, learning content
  • Number of participants
  • Duration
  • Certification
  • Costs
  • References

Perhaps the comparison will only help you to narrow it down to one or two providers. In this case, a personal consultation on site may make the final decision easier. This will give you an even better insight and you can get to know the people involved directly. Some schools also offer taster days or courses.
