Qualifications opportunities
In order to give children and young people the best possible support in their linguistic development, the Mercator Institute for Literacy and Language promotes the qualification of teachers and educators in many ways. At the University of Cologne (UoC), the institute is responsible for the module German for Migrant Students, which is compulsory for all student teachers in North Rhine-Westphalia. It also offers a continued education programme, a programme for refugee teachers.
