Continuous assessment of course work

Fundamentals / basic knowledge of mental health disorders, ICD-10, DSM-IV and legal issues (catchwords: "Austrian Psychologists law") are obligatory for successful course participation!
In exceptional cases: Students can compensate their absence of one (and only) course date by a written task and the completion of worksheets (only as agreed upon with the lecturer / in consultation with the lecturer).
E-Learning tasks (approximately 8 - 10 hours; flexible time management / freedom to plan the time) complete the face-to-face courses.
