Four of the nine modules are explicitly dedicated to the development of your methodological and didactic skills. We want your future training programs to be closely aligned with the needs of your customers and to enable you to develop sustainable concepts for implementation and transfer.

In the module Psychology and Neurology for Trainers, we introduce you to important models of communication psychology and provide you with basic knowledge of neurology, which will help you to better understand the process of learning. The module Conflict Resolution for Trainers is an integral part of our training to ensure that you do not lose control even in difficult situations.

Certification

Prove your qualification as a trainer with a recognized certificate!

The training market is confusing. That's why private and public clients are increasingly demanding that their trainers can document their qualifications with recognized certificates. Certification is therefore a particularly important step in a trainer's career.

After participation in the BAMIK Trainer Academy, certification takes place with the German Dachverband der Weiterbildungsorganisationen e.V. (DVWO). Upon successful completion of the examination module, our graduates receive the certificate:


The DVWO was established in 2002 as a representation for the professional interests of continuing education and is an association of continuing education organizations representing over 10,000 members. The members of the DVWO member organizations are predominantly trainers, consultants and coaches, who are working as freelance professionals in the field of continuing education.

Our cooperation with the DVWO guarantees that you will be certified by a neutral, Europe-wide recognized institution of the education industry and that you will be able to implement its demanding quality guidelines in your later trainings.
