Bildung for Teachers

The program consists of eight three-hour physical meetings over six months. In addition to the meetings, you will spend about two to three hours between each meeting completing preparatory assignments and reading/reviewing in-depth resources and materials.

The program will take place at one of De Bildung Academie's (partner) locations in Amsterdam. The exact location will follow and depends on the number of participants.

Upon completion of the course, you will receive a certificate of participation if:

• You have attended at least seven of the eight meetings.
• You have completed all assignments in a timely and complete manner.

Bildung is actively, consciously, and ethically relating to your inner self, others, and the world. It represents the ideal that people develop themselves as broadly and fully as possible and take on social responsibility.

We have been inspired by the ideas of classic bildungsdenkers such as Wilhelm von Humboldt (1767 - 1835) and Theodor Adorno (1903-1969), but also by contemporary thinkers such as Gert Biesta, Martha Nussbaum and Roman Krznaric.
