You can earn one ECTS credit for 25–30 hours' work. This equates to up to four credits for a one-week Main Course, eight credits for a two-week Main Course or six credits for a one-week Advanced Workshop.
On successful completion of the required work, and following receipt of your grades from the Instructor, CEU will send you details of their credits.
In addition to ECTS credits, everyone who attends 90% of course classes will receive a certificate of attendance, provided they sign the attendance sheets.
Instructors can award two credits per course, on completion of the required work. Further credits can be given if you complete the additional tasks specified in the course outline, and if the credits have been approved by the Instructor and an Academic Convenor.

A- | Excellent | 3.66 | 87 – 93.99% |
