If instructors identify areas where their skills require further development based on the course evaluation, the department and the university provide various options to help them.

The “SUPPORT für die Lehre” university teaching skills program offers instructors an opportunity to obtain individual continuing and professional education in line with their specific needs by selecting specific continuing education options in various skill areas relating to teaching at the higher education level. For junior instructors in particular, the university offers a modularized certificate program. Successful completion results in the Hochschuldidaktisches Zertifikat (Certificate in University Teaching) from Freie Universität Berlin.
