vhs.Sprachentreff Spanish
The vhs.Sprachentreff is a special way of learning and practising languages in a lively way. Take the opportunity to test how well you can already speak. The ice is quickly broken in a cheerful atmosphere. Forget about grammar gaps and just let the words flow. Your conversation partners are just like you. They all love languages, learn languages and want to speak.
Every vhs.Sprachentreff has a focus language. For this language and for English, there is usually a native speaker moderator on site. On this evening, the moderators do not take on the role of teachers, but provide impulses and stimulate your conversations. The focus language is not your language? No problem! All languages are welcome!

Digitalisation - opportunities and challenges of the changing world of work
We are undergoing a transformation to an information society. Some of this is reminiscent of the transition from an agrarian to an industrialised society, driven by technological progress with far-reaching social consequences. The world of work is changing: new professions, new forms of collaboration, different working rhythms and working conditions are emerging. The unknown, the new, did not yet exist. We are embracing them in order to master the future.
Why is that the case? Where will this lead us? How can we deal with new situations? We ask ourselves questions like these in the course and find possible answers.
