Continuing education
We will take you further in your health profession.
Our School of Health Sciences at Zurich University of Applied Sciences ZHAW is one of Switzerland's largest and most prestigious centres for training and continuing education in health professions. We offer a modern infrastructure and an attractive location next to the old town within a few minutes' walk of Winterthur train station and our multi-story car park.
Modular design
Our continuing education courses are aimed at professionals with an applied degree or who have subsequently acquired a degree. The modular structures allow for the individual building blocks to be assembled according to your requirements. Courses can last for one or several days and be completed individually or step by step leading to a Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS), a Diploma in Advanced Studies (DAS) or a Master of Advanced Studies (MAS). This allows for a lot of flexibility with regard to the content, time and financial planning of your continuing education.
Comparable performances across Europe
Study performances in our continuing education courses are assessed using ECTS credits according to the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) to make them comparable across Europe. One credit equals 30 hours of studies.
