- Students are required to attend eight modules in person. Each module requires that students attend lectures and courses on five days (Mon – Fri), which generally fall within an 18 months period. Subsequent to this, students spend six months completing a Master’s thesis.
- Modules are completed at selected universities in German-speaking countries. Module 8 is completed at a different university each year. This university will be located in Germany, or abroad. An important part of the course is the independent planning, creation and evaluation of a training course or workshop at the student’s home faculty. At the end of this project, students complete a comprehensive, written report.
