Advanced training in company integration management (BEM)

Conversation management and case counseling for advanced students

This training is held in German.
BEM is always individual. Every company has to create its own process and sometimes each individual case can present a challenge. In this intensive practical workshop, you will deepen your discussion skills, e.g. with regard to dealing with mental health issues. Your specific practical cases will also be addressed as part of collegial consultation and solutions will be developed with professional support. Important note: The "Advanced training in company integration management (BEM)" is an in-depth training and should ideally be attended as a follow-up to the "Recommendations for action in company integration management (BEM)" training . Basic legal knowledge and case law - e.g. aspects of employment law such as dismissal due to illness and BEM - on company integration management is not part of this advanced training and is a prerequisite.
