Terms and Conditions

Terms and conditions of service, which often vary according to the policy of the particular host institution in which the participant is placed, are generally as follows:

Duration of Stay

1. Early termination of stay on the part of the participant greatly affects the overall running of the programme (as yearly schedules for courses are made in advance. It also greatly inconveniences the host institution). All participants are expected to fulfil minimum two thirds of their stay period.
2. Violation of the terms and conditions of the contract, such as prematurely leaving the programme and/or returning home without justifiable reasons, will result in corresponding measures to be taken, such as requiring the participant to reimburse the host institution for the cost of the full course.
