Overview

Article 1 of the founding act stipulates that “the aim of the foundation is to offer persons whose profession is to enforce adult prison sentences and therapeutic measures, the theoretical and practical vocational education and further training they need.”

The Training Centre is located in Fribourg on the 4th floor of the “Centre quartier Beauregard”. The town was chosen for its bilingualism (German and French) and its symbolic relevance for Switzerland’s German-, French- and Italian-speaking regions.  The Centre includes the reception, administrative offices and training rooms. The cafeteria is located on the ground floor. In the same complex, participants share double room accommodation.
