The Arts Teacher is a two-semester full-time and part-time programme, while the MA in Trainer-Mentor (Preparation for the qualification examination) is a four-semester part-time course.
The Master of Fine Arts Teacher training course is based on the Master of Fine Arts course and offers a visual pedagogist training course.

Through its work, the Fine Arts Teacher Training course responds to the changing composition and structure of culture, particularly visual culture. In developing its infrastructure, the primary focus is on the development of modern visual techniques and on the needs of students and the development of technical and teaching practice. Admission to the Fine Art Teacher Training course is subject to successful completion of an aptitude test.
