In addition to the general requirements for the teacher training program, which must be met, a sports aptitude test must also be taken for the subject of sports. Since teacher training courses can only be started in the winter semester, the sports aptitude test only takes place once a year. In addition, proof of successful participation in a first aid course is required and the German Lifeguard Badge Bronze (or higher) must be shown. Both proofs have to be presented at enrollment.

Prerequisite, exemption and recognition of the sports aptitude test.

  • a medical certificate  must be submitted via the form or brought to the sports aptitude test at the latest!
  • If you have already successfully taken a sports aptitude test at another university/college, you can have the test recognized. You can obtain the certificate of the fully passed and equivalent test in the application form upload.
    • We recognize all fully passed Spor­t­eig­nungs­prü­fungen of other German universities!
  • If the applicant can prove that he/she belongs to a competitive squad (at least a national squad) or has completed a sports performance course at school and has passed with the grade "very good" (at least 13 points), he/she can be exempted. The certificate can also be submitted in the registration form uploaded in the registration form.

If you have sent your registration on time and in full, you will receive an invitation to the sports aptitude test. The general abilities endurance, speed/ quickness, strength, coordination as well as the sport-specific abilities in swimming, team sports and gymnastics are tested. Please keep in mind that upon enrollment, you must provide proof of successful participation in a first aid course and the German Lifeguard Badge Bronze (or higher).

Information on the German Lifeguard Badge can be obtained, for example, at https://baunatal.dlrg.de or from the German Red Cross Water Rescue Service in Kassel. We recommend completing the DRSA badge in silver.

Preparation

For participation in the sports aptitude test at the University of Kassel, it is highly recommended to practice the various test items beforehand and to prepare for the specific requirements. For specific preparation, the Institute of Sport and Sport Science offers video recordings on the exact test structure, performance and performance requirements. These video recordings, as well as the template "Contents, Performance Requirements and Scoring Standards", have proven to be very helpful for the participants of the sports test.
