Registration for Seminars and Trainings
Registrations will be considered in the order in which they are received. EIT Manufacturing East GmbH accepts registrations for its seminars and trainings in the online store and requires prior registration. The booking is in any case a binding contract and obligates the participant to pay the event fee.
Minimum and maximum numbers of participants apply to the seminars and trainings. If an event consists of a series of events, registration for this event is only possible in its entirety – unless individual registrations are offered; events missed by the customer cannot be made up free of charge.
For organizational reasons, registration is required no later than 3 (three) days prior to the start of the event, otherwise the participation in the respective event cannot be guaranteed. In order to be able to process your registration, it is necessary to provide complete data.
If you register a third person for a seminar or training, you expressly declare that you are authorized to make this registration.
Conditions of Participation
If attendance at a training event is subject to certain admission requirements, these are listed separately in the seminar program and must be fulfilled by the participant. The right to attend an event cannot be transferred to third parties. For participation in online formats and logging on to the platform, prior registration on the learning platform under the official name is required, among other things, for correct frequency recording. The use of aliases is not permitted. In addition to first name and surname, it is also necessary to provide address, telephone number and an e-mail address. Any changes to this data must be reported in writing to EIT Manufacturing East GmbH. Furthermore, the activation of the webcam is mandatory for participation in web seminars.
Training Location
All trainings can take place at different venues or online. Respective information will be announced in advance.
Event Fee
The fees for seminars and trainings are shown in the webshop. It is noted that EIT Manufacturing East GmbH assumes no liability for the accuracy of the fees shown therein and that these may vary in individual cases.
Unless otherwise stated, the event fee can be paid by online banking, debit or credit card. The event fee must be paid before the start of the event, otherwise participation in the event (use of the consultation) is excluded.
In case of late payment, the activation of the respective participant will be deactivated.
In the event of late entry into an event, a pro-rata reduction of the event fee is not possible; the same applies in the event of early exit.
The event fee does not include any additional costs for travel, meals or overnight stays.
Seminar Units
An online seminar unit includes approx. 4 hours of instruction, the on-site trainings approx. 8 hours. Breaks are determined by the trainers in consultation with the learning groups.
Scripts, Working Documents
For events, participants are provided with scripts or learning materials which, unless otherwise stated, are included in the event fee and are handed out at the beginning of the event or made available online. In case it is not possible to provide the documents at the beginning of the event, for example due to a last-minute booking, they will be provided at the earliest possible time. A separate purchase of scripts or learning material is not possible. The documents provided by EIT Manufacturing East GmbH may not be reproduced, distributed, offered for sale or made available to the public.
Image, Video and Sound Recordings
The taking of pictures, videos and sound recordings of the learning material, of the lecture or of persons during the events in presence and online is prohibited without exception.
Confirmation of Participation
Confirmations of attendance will be issued free of charge if the participant has attended at least 75% of the event in question, unless otherwise specified. The timely issuance of a confirmation of Participation requires the participant’s data to be submitted no later than 14 days before the start of the event.
Changes in the Event Program/Changes in the Type of Event (presence, online events)/Event Cancellation
Due to the long-term planning, organizational changes of the program and the type of event are possible. Likewise, the realization of an event depends on a minimum number of participants. EIT Manufacturing East GmbH therefore reserves the right to make changes to course days, start times, dates, event locations, event types (presence, online events), trainers and possible event cancellations in the event that the specified minimum number of participants is not reached, unforeseeable cancellations of course instructors or lecturers, or other circumstances that EIT Manufacturing East GmbH cannot foresee and cannot influence. Participants will be informed in due time. If an event is cancelled at short notice through no fault of EIT Manufacturing East GmbH, e.g. due to illness of the trainer or other unforeseeable events, there is no entitlement to the implementation of (parts of) the event. Compensation for expenses incurred and other claims against EIT Manufacturing East GmbH cannot be derived from this. The same applies to postponements or changes to the schedule and type of event that become necessary at short notice.
If an event has to be cancelled, any event fees already paid will be refunded without deduction. The refund will be made by bank transfer to an account specified in writing by the participant.
Cancellation Conditions
Cancellations of booked events can only be made in writing by e-mail to the above e-mail address. The cancellation becomes effective on the day it is received by EIT Manufacturing East GmbH. A cancellation fee will be charged for the cancellation depending on the date of receipt. The following cancellation conditions apply:
- Cancellations up to the 15th calendar day before the start of the event: free of charge
- Cancellations from the 14th calendar day before the start of the event: 50 % of the event fee
- Cancellations on the day of the event or afterwards: 100 % of the event fee (this also applies in case of agreed partial payments)
Price advantages resulting from the booking of a seminar series will be reversed if individual events are cancelled.
The cancellation fee is waived if the participant nominates a substitute participant who corresponds to the target group, attends the event and pays the event fee. However, the original participant remains liable for the event fee.
