General Questions
The standard course for ‚immediate lifesaving action‘ (ger.: LSM) does not exist since January 1st, 2016. Until now, all learners had to attend eight lessons of ‚LSM‘ (one lesson equals 45 minutes) - but now, even the learners attend one course of nine lessons. This new kind of course is called „First Aid Training“ and now applies to EVERYONE! All other types of courses that M-A-U-S has to offer are specifically tailored to the needs of individual groups (e.g. parents, associations). You want to regain your ‚old‘ drivers license category 3? There’s a course for that.
New First Aid Course:
This is a compulsory course for the truck and bus license categories C, CE, C1, C1E, D, DE, D1, D1E and the passenger transport license, as well as for students of pedagogy, sports - and medical disciplines. The course consists of 9 teaching units and is also required for coaches, trainers, camp leaders and for life guards. Would you like to regain your "old" driver license category 3? Then you have to complete the new first aid course.
It’s best to choose a date and either register for it or directly book it on the website.
You’ll have to take valid ID (i.e. identity card or passport). Unfortunately, student cards aren’t valid. If an eye exam is desired, one should take any visual aid they might be required to wear. You’ll either have to pay your course fee on location or show a paid-for online ticket. Since the courses take a few hours, it is advised to bring food and drinks for your needs. Our course locations are typically close to train stations, cafés or takeaways that you can go to during breaks. There’s quite a bit of practical exercises in the course, so it’s best to wear comfortable clothes.
