Due to the strong interest shown in the subject of economics and the high demand for further training in economics for teachers at general secondary schools, the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport has been offering in-service training in the field of economics continuously since 2002.
In September 2022, the eight-month, internet-based training course "Economics at grammar schools - online" started for the last time with 54 participants from grammar schools and community schools.

Who is the target group?
The course is aimed at interested teachers at upper secondary level of general secondary schools in the subjects of social studies and/or geography who would like to qualify to teach economics at course level.
What is the objective?
Teachers will be prepared for the demands of teaching economics at course level. The content is based on the topics of the 2016 curriculum.
What is the procedure?
The training is offered as blended learning, which refers to a targeted mix of various face-to-face and digital learning methods and formats. In addition to a one-day introductory event, two attendance phases with a total of five event days are integrated into the online phases accompanied by experienced specialist tutors.
The focus of these face-to-face events is on the didactic implementation of the subject content. Active teaching and learning methods of economic education to develop methodological skills are practiced and a link between theory and practice is sought.
