Teaching methods

At the beginning of every seminar students are familiarized with the theoretical basics, which are then trained in short (10-15 minutes) practical business conversations between students. Then the students and the instructor give feedback to colleagues The students inspire mutually and everybody tries to improve his/her weaknesses. First of all, we try to model real situations from practice which will enable students to start working in the real business world fast and easily

Assessment methods

To achieve 60 % of points in the continuous assessment and to pass the final seminar successfully. The participation in the seminars is obligatory. Any copying, recording or leaking tests, use of unauthorized tools, aids and communication devices, or other disruptions of objectivity of exams (credit tests) will be considered non-compliance with the conditions for course completion as well as a severe violation of the study rules. Consequently, the teacher will finish the exam (credit test) by awarding grade "F" in the Information System, and the Dean will initiate disciplinary proceedings that may result in study termination.
