Abstract

In 2015 the Swiss Red Cross and the State Secretariat for Migration launched the SESAM project with the aim of training refugees and temporarily admitted persons as care assistants, thus offering them the chance of rapid integration into the Swiss labour market. The work-related language training posed a challenge. The present paper will give a rough outline of the SESAM project and present the concept of continuous profession-specific language support developed within the project. Additionally, this specific project should serve as a basis for a fundamental reflection on the content, didactic methods as well as the moral and ethical questions associated with language training for professional purposes.
