As a central institution of the University of Kassel, the Career Service cannot recognize credits. The departments are responsible for the recognition of credits according to the ECTS guidelines within the framework of the respective study and examination regulations.

Our multi-day events on additional qualifications for students of the humanities and social sciences have an independent practical component and comprise 60 working hours including preparation and follow-up. Upon full participation in the event and passing the practical performance (usually a written exam), we award a certificate and recommend that the departments recognize 2 credits. The certificates are ungraded.
Please contact your departments regarding recognition.

We are unable to award certificates for our other event offerings such as lectures, day-long and half-day workshops. However, we are happy to issue a certificate of attendance upon request.
