Bernburg/Aschersleben. Up to five days per year are possible: employees in Saxony-Anhalt are entitled to take leave from their employer for further training. This educational leave is granted with continued payment of wages and is also known as educational leave.
The KVHS offer "Work Life Balance" is one such BU measure that has already taken place several times to the complete satisfaction of all those involved and has therefore been recognised again by the state administration office until 2027. The next educational leave week is planned from 22 to 26 September at the KVHS in Bernburg. Every day from 9 a.m. to 3.30 p.m., there will be lots of interesting facts about stress, healthy sleep and healthy eating. A naturopath and nutritionist will teach mindfulness, breathing and relaxation exercises and practise them with the participants. We will also cook and eat together.
"Resilience - A guide to inner strength" is another BU programme at the Bernburg site. There are still places available for the two courses planned for November - from the 3rd to the 7th and from the 10th to the 14th. In this educational holiday, the course instructor provides an overview of factors that maintain health and trigger illness, shows how to deal realistically with one's own resources and predetermined breaking points in order to maintain stable performance and enjoyment of life in the long term. Theoretical and practical elements support the participants in becoming aware of their resilience, learning about strategies to maintain it and reflecting on and practising all of this together. Everyday actions in the spirit of mindfulness and a range of relaxation exercises can be easily integrated into everyday life and help to maintain and strengthen one's own resilience.
The further training course to become a certified children's yoga teacher, a basic course, will take place for the second time in October and November at the KVHS location in Aschersleben. The course is aimed at teachers, educators and carers of children and young people. The aim of the training is to enable them to practise yoga independently with children. There are still places available for this course.
Further information and registration are available online (kvhs.salzlandkreis.de) or by telephone (03471 684-624015). With the registration confirmation sent by the KVHS, employees can apply to their employer for educational leave.
