Certificates of Participation / ECTS

Certificates of participation will be issued by the Network Women.Innovation.Technology in cooperation with Furtwangen University of Applied Sciences upon fulfilment of the specific performance requirements of the respective courses. The additional awarding of credit points (ECTS), if applicable, is based on the announcement in the course programme. The recognition of the participation certificates as well as the credit points is carried out by the respective course management at the home university and must be provided by the participants themselves. At most universities, it is desirable/necessary to make arrangements with the course director in advance of informatica feminale Baden-Württemberg / meccanica feminale.

The requirements for the participants are determined by the lecturers within the framework of the generally accepted scope of performance. Grading is only possible upon prior request and cannot be demanded retroactively. The processing time for the tasks for the acquisition of credit points (ECTS) is normally four weeks after the end of the course, but can be determined individually (per course) after consultation with the lecturer.
