General conditions for participation in the F.I.T. program
Your registration is binding. Your registration data will be stored electronically for this purpose and processed for the creation of participant lists, attendance lists, certificates of participation, name badges and, if required, for registration on learning platforms (simulation games, learning materials, videos) of external instructors. We therefore ask you to register once correctly with your Hohenheim user account or as an external user.
The order of registration determines which participants are admitted.
The number of spaces is limited. There is no legal right to a space even if you registered before the deadline.
Waiting list: A waiting list is maintained for each event. All persons on the waiting list are automatically contacted when a place becomes available. The person who responds first gets the spot.
Cancel registration: If you are unable to attend an event, please cancel or notify us by the cancellation deadline so that space can be reassigned. Our aim is to make the best possible use of the spaces so that as many people as possible benefit from the offer and the costs are in relation to the use.
We reserve the right to cancel the event on short notice for important reasons (e.g. if the instructor is sick).
Storage: Certificates of attendance are saved for 2 years and then automatically deleted. You can retrieve and save your certificate of attendance under "My Events" if a certificate is to be issued for the event.
Deleting your user profile: If you want to delete your profile from the F.I.T. platform please write to: fit-weiterbildung@uni-hohenheim.de
Participation conditions for students
ECTS credits: In the seminar description, you can see whether and how many ECTS credits are given for a F.I.T. seminar. If no ECTS credits are listed in the seminar description, no ECTS credits are awarded for the course. If ECTS credits are given for a course, you will also receive a certificate of attendance.
Also for employees, copy: Unexcused absences: If you are absent twice without excuse from a course, you will be banned for 6 months and cannot register for any further courses during that time. Any registrations for other courses will be automatically cancelled.
In the event of disruptive behavior that impedes the course, a participant can be excluded by the instructor.
Costs: The events are generally free of charge for students of the University of Hohenheim. If there are costs, this will be indicated in the course description.
Qualification measures with certified exams (IBQ and Six Sigma) that have fees: The cancellation deadlines apply. You can withdraw from the course free of charge until the cancellation deadline. After that date, the costs will be charged in full. A medical certificate is required in case of illness.
Institution-specific conditions
Event organizer: Office for University Didactics
You can cancel your registration in writing up to 14 days before the course begins. For cancellations, the post date or email date is relevant.
The courses are funded by the University of Hohenheim. As a participant, you (or the institute sending you) pay a contribution per course day. The amount of the cost contribution may vary. Please refer to the respective course description for the amount of the cost contribution. If you cancel later than 14 days before the start of the seminar or are absent without an excuse, the cost contribution is due.
Cancellations are possible via email. It is not sufficient to inform the instructor that you are cancelling your registration.
For each course you attend, you will receive a certificate of participation. For a certificate of participation, you must be present for at least 80% of the course.
Event organizer: MentHo
You must be a member to attend MentHo seminars.
Event organizer: Human Resources Department
The University supports its employees in further education. Participation is usually counted as working hours if the course has a business use. Courses that are not primarily related to work are marked accordingly in the Continuing Education Program. By registering, you confirm that your participation has been arranged with your supervisor.
If it is not possible for you to participate in the event you have booked, you should cancel your registration as soon as possible - at least one week before the start of the course so that those on the waiting list can be moved up to fill the empty place. If you are ill or prevented from attending for other urgent reasons on short notice, you should immediately inform the Personnel and Organizational Development unit.
Paid qualification measures (IBQ and Six Sigma): The cancellation deadlines apply. You can withdraw from the course free of charge until the cancellation deadline. After that date, the costs will be charged in full. A medical certificate is required in case of illness.
You will receive certificates of attendance either after the respective event or upon request from the Human Resources Department.
