HDZ annual program​

The 2025 annual program of the HDZ Baden-Württemberg once again contains an extensive range of further training opportunities.

With the university didactic events, we would like to support you in your everyday teaching with many tried-and-tested and new offerings. You will find topics such as ”Skills-oriented testing in times of AI,” “Gripping knowledge transfer - the course as a stage” or “Healthy and motivating teaching for students - and lecturers.”

The entire HDZ program is available to all lecturers at universities in Baden-Württemberg.

You can complete your further training in higher education didactics with the Baden-Württemberg Certificate for Teaching and Learning at University Level.

If you have questions on events, please contact the relevant office (in the event location).

For advice on the certificate process, please contact the staff at your own institution.

Registrations have been possible via the TC Manager since 25 November 2024.

Experience has shown that many program elements are quickly booked out, so please sign up for your preferred topics early.
