Part-time certificate programme Future Market 65plus

Due to demographic change, today's 65-plus generation is not only larger in number than in the past. Their resources, potential and needs have also become more diverse. With the shift in the age structure and the changes in their living situation, the tenders and services that people aged 65 and over can and want to take advantage of are also becoming more diverse. Innovative health and education programmes, needs-based housing and technical solutions for everyday problems are just a few examples.

The programmeExternal link combines interdisciplinary knowledge of age and ageing with the necessary entrepreneurial skills to implement project ideas, whether as part of activities within (social) facilities|institutions|on a self-employed basis. It accompanies participants from the development of ideas to the creation of a finished project or business concept and offers space for mutual exchange and reflection. Thanks to a blended learning approach that combines self-study phases with two-day attendance phases (seven attendance weekends in 18 months), the tender can be easily combined with work and family commitments and/or an existing degree programme.
