Credits earned
Each type of training activity corresponds to a certain amount of credits that can be earned by the attendee. The credits are awarded for each activity following the rule
1 hour = 1 credit. Based on this rule:
• Advanced course delivered by PhD Board/Board of Experts: 1 credit
• Seminars: 1 hour = 0.125 credits; 2 hours = 0.25 credits
• Courses and workshops: 1 credit per day
• 1-week-long courses and workshops: 4 credits
