German term
Heilerziehungspfleger
German to English
Medical
Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs
I know there are already several entries for possible translation for the German occupation "Heilerziehungspfleger". My question is for the Canadian context and equivalents in the NOC. Would "instructor of persons with disabilities" be a correct translation? That is NOC 4215

Note from asker:
| I don't think "nurse" is the appropriate term as it entails medical care which is not the what the Heilerziehungspfleger does which is a paramedical occupation that focuses more on supports for daily living. |

Education/training for this work
Die Ausbildung zum Heilerziehungspfleger ist im Gegensatz zu gleichwertigen sozialen Berufen nicht einheitlich, sondern wird durch die jeweiligen Bundesländer und die verschiedenen Ausbildungseinrichtungen geregelt. Deswegen fallen auch die Voraussetzungen sehr unterschiedlich aus: Bei der Bewerbung für eine Ausbildung zum Heilerziehungspfleger hast du in der Regel mit einem mittleren Schulabschlussganz gute Chancen. Dieser Abschluss allein reicht allerdings nicht aus, denn zusätzlich musst du eine ein- bis zweijährige Berufsausbildung abgeschlossen oder ein Vorpraktikum gemacht haben, die zu diesem Bereich passt. Das könnte beispielsweise die Ausbildung zum Kinderpfleger oder Sozialassistenten sein. Wenn du zwei Jahre lang eine Berufsfachschule für Sozialwesen besucht hast, bist du ebenfalls ein geeigneter Kandidat für diese Ausbildung. Sogar mit einer abgeschlossenen Berufsausbildung, die sich nicht auf die soziale Arbeit spezialisiert, kannst du dich bewerben. Diese sollte allerdings trotzdem zu deinem Traumberuf Heilerziehungspfleger passen. https://www.ausbildung.de/berufe/heilerziehungspfleger/
