“The limits of my language mean
the boundaries of my world."

 – Ludwig Wittgenstein –

In Germany, around one million people require speech therapy. Speech therapists treat people with impairments in the areas of language/speech, voice, swallowing, speech fluency and hearing. They independently carry out medically prescribed therapies for patients of all ages - from infants to adults. Speech therapists prepare diagnoses and advise patients and their relatives. They often work in the field of rehabilitation and prevention. Places of work include speech therapy practices, rehabilitation centers, hospitals, support centers, integrative daycare centers and schools. The aim of the training is to acquire speech therapy professionalism in accordance with the latest research in speech therapy and relevant scientific findings in order to be able to:

  • To treat patients with language, speech, voice, swallowing, hearing and speech fluency disorders,
  • to cooperate with the treating physician and relevant institutions,
  • to carry out diagnostics, therapies and consultations independently and on one's own responsibility on the basis of medical prescriptions.

The training concept of the 3 learning locations

We are convinced that professionals who want to work in the healthcare sector must have cross-functional and cross-sector thinking, coupled with a professional attitude. The academy's didactic concept, learning at three learning locations, interprofessional teaching and learning arrangements and interaction with new technologies are the academy's future-oriented paths, together with its practice partners from the healthcare sector.

Learning Place THEORY – Professional skills and competencies build on knowledge

  • Lectures and case-based seminars convey the technical fundamentals and contexts of the respective profession. Interprofessional events broaden your own professional perspective and understanding of other professional groups in the healthcare sector.
  • Independent and individual learning is made possible, among other things, through the use of new media.

Learning location TRAINING & TRANSFER (LTT) – Practice and training in a protected space

  • In the Training & Transfer learning area, participants should train and consolidate skills and abilities in a setting that is as authentic as possible. Unlike in real working life, mistakes do not have any serious consequences, but rather play an important role in the learning process. Learning with and from one another also plays an important role in this area.
  • The teachers take on the role of coaches in this area. The individual prior knowledge and experience of the participants are actively integrated and the content is tailored accordingly. The learning process is supported and accompanied by intensive reflection on learning progress.

Learning Place PRAXIS – Learning under Real Conditions

  • Professional practice completes the training process with specific situations and tasks. Depending on the level of training, there are targeted practical phases in which the participants can test and further develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes they have learned.
  • The training participants are expertly guided and accompanied by staff in the practice facilities and teachers at the academy.
  • Collected experiences and events serve as a starting point for the further professional learning process in the theory and LTT learning areas and are taken up in the courses and appropriately taken into account.
  • The practical learning takes place in the cooperation houses/practices of the Academy of Health.

Requirements that must be met:

  • Abitur, intermediate school leaving certificate, equivalent recognized educational qualification or secondary school leaving certificate with two years of vocational training
  • Completion of the 16th year of life

At the Academy of Health Berlin/Brandenburg eV, participants in speech therapy courses can acquire an additional certificate of participation for “Basic Life Support”.

  • in the 2nd year of training: 1,250.00 euros (gross)
