Bernhard Lehner will be joining our team as a research assistant in the summer semester of 2025. With his varied professional background - he holds a diploma in Religious Education/Church Education (KU Eichstätt-Ingolstadt) as well as the first and second state exams for primary school teachers - he combines in-depth expertise in religious education with many years of practical experience in both school and pastoral contexts. His professional path has taken him through primary education, teacher training and academic research at the Chair of Religious Education and Catechetics under Prof. Dr. Ulrich Kropač
In addition to his academic and professional qualifications, Bernhard Lehner brings a strong passion for innovative approaches to learning - whether in school pastoral care, teacher training or the development of creative educational formats. He is currently completing a training programme in Gestalt Education and is honing his writing skills through a distance learning course at the School of Writing in Hamburg, focusing on fiction and children's literature.
We are very much looking forward to working with Bernhard Lehner - and to the insights and inspiration he will bring to our team with his experience, curiosity and sensitivity for language and religious education.
