5 semester course
You can start the Online-Logotherapy course at any of the five semesters. At the beginning of the semester you will receive a code that allows you to watch the training of the respective semester in increments.
You will receive access to the first 10 videos at the beginning of the month. In the middle of the month you will be invited to a live-webinar to deepen and discuss what you have already learned from the videos. At the beginning of the following month, you will get access to the next 10 -12 videos. This way you can study your way through the semester in challenging but manageable increments.
We will also facilitate networking among students so that you can engage in constructive and productive exchanges with other participants at all times.
Study of literature
Additionally to the instructional videos, further literature study is an essential part of this training. Over the course of five semesters, we encourage all students to read the main works of Viktor E. Frankl. The course serves to open up and facilitate understanding of Frnakl´s complex work in all its aspects by way of concrete case examples and lively discussions. Another essential book is the “Textbook of Logotherapy” by Elisabeth Lukas, as well as any other of her books which illustrate and deepen the respective subject matters.
Live webinars
Once a month we invite you to join a two hour video conference with Dr. Heidi Schönfeld and Alexander Vesely-Frankl, in which you can share any questions or thoughts you have in order to deepen your understanding of logotherapy. Together we will reflect about the relevance of what has been learned in the context of personal, professional and general topics and world problems. We will also look at one or more sample exam questions for the purpose of practicing. This way you can see for yourself which areas you have already mastered and which may need further attention.
End-of-semester exam
Exams will be held online at the end of each semester. They will be short oral exams consisting of a few questions per student. A webcam is required in order to be able to participate. Dates and timeslots will be assigned individually.
For guest students, no exam is required.
After 6 months, your access to the videos of the current semester expires. You are welcome to sign up for the next semester.

Thanks to the new online offer, participation in logotherapy training will be opened up and made possible for a further group of interested people for whom this was previously not an option for private, personal or professional reasons.
Because the online teaching units can be repeated at your own pace and at any time and as often as necessary, participants have the opportunity to develop an individual, tailor-made learning rhythm.
The logotherapy training content is interesting, exciting and profitable, although also extensive and demanding. Due to the many good practical examples, the theoretical part is understandable and easy to implement.

Entrepreneur
The online logotherapy course based on the teachings of Victor E. Frankl enriches my everyday life and is available online at any time and from anywhere. It is an indispensable support for my personal development as well as for my everyday professional life as an entrepreneur, in the management of employees and the people-oriented orientation of the company. Through Ms. Dr. Schönfeld's catchy and very understandable communication of the content, connections and many examples of the practical application and implementation of logotherapy. The online format allows me to engage with the current content as often as I want. Again and again, one or two lessons bring me back down to earth and realities and I immediately succeed in implementing the understood facts when answering life's questions when it is necessary. The online course also makes it really easy to stick with it and not lose track of what's important in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. In my opinion, of all possible decisions, dealing with logotherapy is always the right one.
Thank you for the offer and the possibilities!
