How does the cycle work?

1. Regular meetings – workshops are held on selected dates, always on Wednesdays from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. You can register for individual topics according to your preferences, either once or repeatedly. However, we recommend considering regular participation, as the individual topics build on each other and form a comprehensive cycle. Regular attendance allows you to systematically deepen your knowledge, better understand the context, and get the most out of the workshop.
