Heidelberg Parent Training (HET) is a proven method for promoting early language development in children with delayed language acquisition. It was developed by Dr Anke Buschmann and tested for its effectiveness in scientific studies. The training is aimed at parents of two to three-year-old children, so-called "late talkers", and enables them to support their children's language development in everyday life through targeted language-promoting interactions.
HET is a tried-and-tested intervention that has been used successfully in early intervention centres, special education centres and speech therapy practices for over ten years.
The certificate course "Heidelberg Parent Training for Early Language Development" comprises three modules:
The certificate course is aimed at specialists in early intervention, speech therapy, speech therapy, educational counselling and educational staff who want to support parents in the language development of their children.
With the "HET Trainer" certificate, graduates expand their professional opportunities in language support and parental work. They can independently lead parent training sessions and work in various institutions that specialise in supporting children with language and developmental psychology.
The training programme concludes with a personal supervision of your first HET course and parent workshops. This is arranged individually and costs €250.00 including certificate and inclusion in the list of trainers www.heidelberger-elterntraining.eu.

Regulations applicable to the degree programme (published in the Official announcements of the HSN) and other guidelines:
Dr Anke Buschmann (Dipl.-Psych.)
In the Basic module (2 days) presents the background to HET, its content and framework conditions. You will learn the methodology of co-operative and systematic collaboration with a small group of parents. Many elements of HET can also be used in your own child-centred work in the context of early intervention.
In the Practical module (2 days), the actual implementation of the HET is practised together. To this end, the participants each familiarise themselves intensively with one element of the HET. This enables intensive learning and anticipation of typical difficulties in parent training programmes. In addition, the video interaction analysis used in HET is discussed in detail.
In the Advanced module Multilingualism (1 day) you will learn how to conduct the additional session for multilingual families, which parents attend before the HET. In this two-hour session, the handling of the different languages is discussed and parental questions on this topic are answered in detail. This is important so that the parents can then concentrate on learning the language-promoting strategies during the HET and are not constantly faced with the question of which language they should use to communicate with their child. This workshop can also be held with parents who are not taking part in HET.
The seminar price includes a comprehensive package of materials for carrying out the HET (video clips, photo cards, worksheets to print out, material for the whiteboard).
The seminar price includes a material box for the realisation of the parents' workshop on multilingualism.

What is the difference between studying at a University of Applied Sciences (UAS) and at a „Universität“ (university)? At our University of Applied Sciences, you will receive much more support throughout your learning process than at a traditional university. We provide self-assessment questions to help you check your understanding, offer practical exercises to deepen your knowledge, and encourage a high level of interaction in lectures and seminars. This is very different from courses with more than 300 students.
