MQ II Compact Course

General information

The various compact courses are aimed at teachers who - building on the Medical Didactics Qualification I - further develop their teaching skills and at the end of their two-stage qualification receive the ministerial Baden-Württemberg Certificate in Medical Didactics.

It is urgently recommended that teachers further deepen their teaching skills as required after their MQ I - Basic Training (minimum requirement).

The format of the one-week compact courses is preferred by the vast majority of teachers.  However, it is also possible to attend individual courses. In this case, we strongly recommend prior individual consultation with the Tübingen Centre of Excellence.
