The course consists of the vocational first subject of health, a general second subject (e.g. German or politics) and a core course in education and social sciences (the latter includes pedagogical-psychological content, didactic models or developmental aspects of vocational education). The subject-specific modules of the first subject are studied at Fulda University of Applied Sciences, while the modules of the core studies and subject didactics are studied in Kassel.

A special feature of this course is that there is the option of a second variant, in which the second subject of nursing from the Bachelor's degree is studied further. In this variant, the Master's degree enables students to teach at vocational nursing schools, but access to the second phase of teacher training is not possible.
