TRAINING COURSES & DATES

Here you find the current dates for general introductions, area-specific trainings or the use of specific types of materials and research tools. The courses are open to the public. Dates and information are updated continually, so it pays to have a look once in a while.

The link for a pending virtual meeting will be published in due time in the announcement section below. Registration is not necessary, you can join spontaneously. By using the contact form, however, you can also pose questions – in due time before the course – regarding the content or request specific topics to be addressed in the course.

If not noted otherwise, the language of lecture is German. If you are interested in an English-language course, you can contact us in good time and we will try to provide the course in English.

All online courses are scheduled in Berlin Time / Central European Time (CET/UTC+1).

Please note: You can take part in the courses using your browser without having to install a special software. Please click on the respective button “meeting room” below, follow the link “join via browser” (“über Browser teilnehmen”), and enter your name. Please allow, for the Welcome, that the Meeting room may access to your microphone and video. During the session, please deactivate the video function via the Meeting room menu, in order to improve the connection. If you do not want to say something yourself, please also deactivate your microphone. This also eliminates disturbing background noise and annoying feedback. Everything else will be addressed during the session.
