Geretsried – In a few days the new semester will start at the adult education center (Vhs) Geretsried.
According to the announcement, there are 200 courses in the areas of general education, vocational training, creativity, sports, languages, health and nutrition.
Registrations are now possible.
"Our offer is diverse, educational, up-to-date, social and entertaining," praises Vhs director Beate Ruda of the new program.
"Young and old will find what they are looking for with us." From the Christmas hike in the footsteps of King Ludwig to a tasting with Germany's first beer sommelier to electromobility and ski gymnastics: interested parties can choose from a total of 200 events in the autumn semester.
"Folk college is so much more than an English or a cooking class," says Ruda.
If you are interested in a new language and want to expand your general education,
Courses lasting several weeks, short courses and individual events
If you want to focus on physical training, inner balance or better nutritional awareness, you can choose between 80 events specifically in the area of health.
Participants who do not have time for courses lasting several weeks can choose from 32 varied individual events or short courses in the general education and society or creative sections.
