Children's well-being comes before bureaucracy
We know that municipalities and cantons have longer processing times. In acute cases, waiting for the next budget cycle is not an option – that's why we advance services.
Advance services in acute cases
If your school or kindergarten cannot currently afford training, we as an association will advance the costs. In particularly urgent cases, we can even fully sponsor the service. The well-being of children and teachers is more important to us than financial matters.
We help with applications
Less bureaucracy for you: We directly support you in applying for training budgets from supervisors, municipalities or other bodies. Our team prepares the necessary documents and accompanies the process.
Flexible payment terms
We know that public institutions need longer payment terms. That's why we offer flexible payment options – whether installments, payment after budget approval, or individual arrangements.
Acute cases – immediate help
Acute cases cannot wait. When a child or teacher needs immediate support, we act – regardless of budget cycles. Submit a request and we'll find the best solution together.
Book a course – we take care of the rest
When booking, you can select which form of support you need: advance payment, installments, sponsoring, or help with applications.
