In Weiden, continuity is maintained at the top of the Volkshochschule Weiden-Neustadt gGmbH. Stefan Frischholz will remain managing director until 2029 and lead a team of 57 employees. The Supervisory Board decided to extend the contract early at its meeting in November. Frischholz, who has held the position since 2013, expressed his delight at the trust of the supervisory board and emphasized the importance of a positive corporate philosophy for the further development of the educational institution. “The adult education center should remain what it is: one of the TOP adult education centers in the Upper Palatinate,” explained Frischholz. His vision includes both traditional adult education and specific integration projects for people with refugee experience, such as oberpfalzecho.de highlights.

Understanding of education and commitment

The Weiden-Neustadt adult education center sees education as a holistic process that covers all areas of life. Its mission statement is based on the principles of enlightenment and tolerance, with anti-democratic content being strictly rejected. This declaration of principles is not just a vision, but is made visible through concrete educational offerings in various areas such as people and society as well as culture and creative work. In addition, the VHS also promotes digital forms of learning to ensure contemporary education, as shown on its official website: vhs-weiden-neustadt.de.

Frischholz emphasizes that the adult education center is a place of social integration and personal interaction. The continuous dialogue between the employees and the decision-makers in the administration ensures that the offers remain needs- and needs-oriented. Committed quality management ensures participant satisfaction, which also confirms the high demand for courses. With the support of the supervisory board, the adult education center will continue to act as an important educational partner in the region.
