FURTHER INFORMATION

Details on the schedule
  • Applies in this implementation:

    The course will begin with a meeting in Zoom on January 12th at 13.15 - 15. An invitation to the meeting will be sent to all participants before this date. It is important that all can participate, because the schedule and the contents of the course will be discussed.
