On the basis of the Lower Saxony Adult Education Act, the VHS offers a wide range of educational opportunities for all sections of the population. In addition to the open courses on offer, which include more than 1,200 courses and events every year, the VHS also offers target group-specific qualifications such as integration courses or school-leaving qualifications in the second educational pathway.

VHS opportunity
An important task of the VHS is also to help ensure that all people living in Wolfsburg have the opportunity to participate in social life. The acquisition of the German language for people who have recently moved to Wolfsburg or have fled is a decisive factor for success. As the largest provider of integration and German courses in Wolfsburg, over 1,500 people take part in these courses every year. Our basic education and second-chance education courses enable people who do not have a school-leaving certificate to catch up on their qualifications and thus improve their chances on the training and employment market. And with our in-depth career guidance programs, we support school students in their career choices.

In view of our linguistically and culturally diverse society, teaching language skills is a task for everyone involved in the upbringing and education of children, young people and adults. This requires coordinated services based on a common basic understanding. The language education officer of the city of Wolfsburg, who is based in the Bildungshaus, coordinates the language education offer along the educational biography and continuously develops the language education concept.
The training courses offered by the language education team are aimed specifically at educational professionals in the field of early childhood education and elementary school and also offer modules to promote multilingualism. The courses cover the basics as well as the various aspects of language education and support and focus on diversity.
