Eidg. Fachausweis Texterin und Texter: All beginnings are difficult
Only two of the six candidates successfully passed the exams for the new federal certificate in copywriting.
Daniela Dambach from Münsingen and Christian Bärtschi from Bern are the first people to be able to call themselves a copywriter with a federal certificate. They achieved an average of 4.4 in the seven examinations and did not achieve a grade below 4 in any of the four main subjects - "Idea, concept, text", "Spelling, grammar, punctuation", "Editing" and "AV and electronic media" - unlike their colleagues, who failed due to weaknesses in the core competencies "Idea, concept, text" and "Spelling, grammar, punctuation", although their average grade would have been sufficient.
The next examinations are scheduled for the end of October (written) and the end of November (oral) 2012. The registration deadline is June 30.
