European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS)

You can earn one ECTS credit for 25–30 hours' work. This equates to up to four credits for a one-week Main Course.

On successful completion of the required work, and following receipt of your grades from the Instructor, you will be sent details of the credits. In addition to ECTS credits, everyone who attends 100% of live sessions will receive a certificate of attendance.

Instructors can award three credits per course, on completion of the required work. One additional credit can be given if you complete one additional task specified in the course outline, and if the credits have been approved by the Instructor and an Academic Convenor.

If you want to earn credits, tell your Instructor on the first day of the course.

Main Courses (one-week)

  • 3 credits Engage fully with class activities or
  • 4 credits Complete a post-class assignment
