Personlig assistent utbildning is an adult education school located in Katrineholm that specializes in training related to personal assistance, particularly in the context of LSS (Lagen om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade). The institution emphasizes the importance of human rights within personal assistance, aiming to enhance the understanding and application of relevant laws in everyday situations. This focus is designed to support both personal assistants and those they assist, ensuring that services are delivered in a respectful and informed manner.
The school provides a range of educational offerings, including lectures and workshops across Sweden, which are intended to equip participants with practical tools and inspiration for their roles in personal assistance. Additionally, Personlig assistent utbildning has published a book titled "Stolt assistent - verktyg och inspiration för personliga assistenter," which serves as a resource for personal assistants seeking to improve their practice. The organization originated from a conversation rather than a traditional business model, reflecting a grassroots approach to addressing the needs of personal assistance in society.
