30/08/2020 Our Online Introductory Course in Holistic Biography Work is receiving positive feedback from participants.
The recording (June 2020) of its Launch Talk may still be viewed. Karl-Heinz gives information on Holistic Biography Work, the Introductory Course itself, the tools we have developed, and our immediate plans.
We have started our Online Biography Training Program. Our onsite training Modules are being delivered online due to current travel restrictions.
We are gradually developing Learning Packs for all of our Modules. They will be available for anyone interested, and provide satisfying personal or professional development.
For Trainees these Learning Packs are supplemented by guided Group-work, online in real-time.
Prerequisite to join the Online Training Program (12 Modules) is prior participation in a Foundation Course. At present, there is a Learning Pack for the Foundation Course available for anyone interested. This is supplemented with guided Group-work for those intending to do the Online Training Program.The guided Group-work can be delivered within different time-zones with a minimum number of participants, so contact us if you are interested.
At present a group is planned for the Asia Pacific time-zone in early December. There are still vacancies for the 2021 intake into the Training Program, and those interested should plan to start the Learning Pack and attend this guided Group-work opportunity.
Learning Packs which become available in 2021 are: Typologies (January); Mental Health Challenges (March); Communication Skills (June); and Helping Conversations (August).
28.08.2020 Da Karl-Heinz Finke wegen CORVID-19 und den damit verbundenen Reisebeschränkungen auf unbestimmte Zeit nicht reisen kann, ist es nötig geworden, die Weiterbildung Biografiearbeit neu zu gestalten.
Ausbildungsseminare
Termine, Themen und Ort der Ausbildungsseminare bleiben wie kommuniziert.
Vor den Seminaren wird den Teilnehmer:innen Vorbereitungsmaterial zugesandt. Solange Karl-Heinz nicht reisen kann, werden den Teilnehmer:innen darüber hinaus seine Seminar-Vorträge (als Videodatei) online zur Verfügung gestellt. Zusätzlich wird, ebenfalls vor dem Seminar, ein Online-Termin mit Karl-Heinz zur Beantwortung von Fragen eingerichtet.
Die Ausbildungsseminare finden dann mit den Assistenten (Gemma Priess, Rita Weber-Wied und Jürgen Brau) als Präsenzseminare in Kassel statt. Der Schwerpunkt wird darauf liegen, die Seminarthemen in der Praxis zu üben und zu vertiefen. Das bedeutet, dass es mehr Zeit und Raum gibt, in die Beratungspraxis hereinzuwachsen.
Trainingsseminare
… finden, solange Karl-Heinz nicht reisen kann, mit Karl-Heinz online statt, nach Möglichkeit in den dafür bereits vorgesehenen Zeitfenstern. D.h. Reise und Übernachtung entfallen für alle Beteiligten, nur ein Zoomfähiger Internetanschluss wird benötigt.
Our work is inspired by Anthroposophy (Wisdom of Humanity) and Psychology (Transpersonal, Humanistic, Analytical).
Since 1997, we have taken Biography Work, as well as personal and professional development work into a number of countries – Germany, UK, Hungary, Thailand, China, Australia, New Zealand, India and Taiwan. Based on this experience, we have developed a holistic and respectful multi-cultural approach. We have now completed 23 Training cycles, each cycle lasting 3 years. Our graduates are able to apply their learning and understanding in many fields of endeavour.
At present, we are working with colleagues and participants Online and in Germany, India, Thailand and Taiwan.
We continue to develop resources and courses to make Biography Work accessible world-wide.
Unsere Arbeit ist von Anthroposophie (Menschen-Weisheit) und humanistischer Psychologie inspiriert.
Seit 1997 haben wir Biografiearbeit, Persönlichkeitsentwicklung und berufliche Fortbildung in einer Reihe von Ländern angeboten – in Deutschland, Großbritannien, Ungarn, Thailand, China, Australien, Neuseeland, Indien und Taiwan. Aufbauend auf diesen Erfahrungen haben wir einen ganzheitlichen und respektvollen multikulturellen Ansatz der Biografie Arbeit entwickelt.
Derzeit arbeiten wir in Deutschland, Indien, Thailand, Taiwan und Australien.
To the question, what is the meaning of life,
all answer with their own biographies.

Auf die Frage nach dem Sinn des Lebens,
antwortet jeder mit seinem eigenen Lebenslauf.
