RELEATE STEM certification: HAK/HAS and IT-HTL set standards

In a remarkable performance, the commercial academy and trade school (HAK/HAS) and the information technology-higher technical educational institution (IT-HTL) have again gained the MINT certification. This award confirms the high level of commitment of the two educational institutions in the areas of mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology - for short mint.

The term mint includes a large number of specialist areas that are of central importance for the professional future of students. Mathematics and computer science are essential for technical professions, while natural sciences and technology provide basic knowledge for many innovative developments. Therefore, the MINT certification is an important milestone for schools that focus on offering their students high-quality education in these subjects.

The way for MINT certification

The MINT certification requires regular training from the educational institutions so that students can gain practical experience. Workshops, project weeks and competitions are just a few of the activities that help promote the interest and skills of the students in these critical areas.

The HAK/HAS and the IT-HTL not only focused on theoretical knowledge, but also on giving the students the opportunity to apply what they have learned in practice. This is done through close cooperation with companies and organizations that work in these areas. Such partnerships help the students to experience real challenges and to develop solutions, which contributes enormously to practical training.

Another crucial factor for achieving certification is the continuous training of teachers. The teachers are able to effectively integrate modern teaching methods and technologies into their lessons by various training programs. This ensures that the students are prepared for the latest developments and trends in the MINT subjects.

The renewed achievement of the MINT certification is not only a confirmation of the pedagogical quality of these schools, but also a sign of the commitment to optimally prepare students for future challenges in an increasingly technological world. Parents, students and interested parties can look forward to a varied and intensive educational offer that paves the foundations for a successful career in the MINT areas.
