Online Lower Secondary School Certificate Program without English

This program is designed for adult learners and career starters who want to obtain the German lower secondary school qualification (Hauptschulabschluss) without taking foreign language examinations. Whether returning to education after a long break or seeking foundational qualifications to access vocational training and new career paths, learners receive thorough preparation tailored to their individual pace and everyday schedules.

The curriculum encompasses all primary and secondary subjects required for the state secondary school examination. Core subjects include German, with an emphasis on spelling, formal correspondence, report drafting, text comprehension, and oral communication, alongside mathematics covering arithmetic, fractions, percentages, algebra, and geometry. Complementary subjects provide broad foundational knowledge across history, politics, economics, geography, biology, chemistry, and physics.

Learning takes place via distance study supported by the digital SGD-OnlineCampus, structured printed study booklets, and interactive tools such as the AI learning assistant KILEA. Students benefit from individual guidance by experienced distance tutors who review submissions, along with voluntary webinars, a supplementary seminar and a free, mandatory exam preparation webinar for the external state examination.

This program is open to all learners without specific prerequisites. Enrollment is available directly through the institution's website at any time of the year, allowing learners to commence their studies immediately.
