Say goodbye to cancelled or postponed trainings
Trainings with an ACTIVE Start Guarantee always start. This provides certainty, confidence, and prevents disappointment.
Why? These trainings will not be canceled after booking*.

How do you know if a training offers Start Guarantee?
Look for the 📅 “Start Guarantee icon” on the course page and during registration. When it says “ACTIVE”, you can be sure the training will start.
Register today, because our training courses with Start Guarantee fill up quickly!

How will I know when the Start Guarantee becomes active?
Register! By doing so, you will be kept informed about that training and we are more likely to host it.
It doesn’t take many participants for a training to become “Start Guarantee: ACTIVE”!

*Trainings will only be canceled or postponed in the case of force majeure. Your registration will only be active after you have received an email confirmation and invoice.

Trainings and sessions that last a full day typically include a sandwich lunch.

You will find this information in the confirmation email.

If not included, it will be mentioned there as well.

The Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy applies to all practical training and sessions.

In case specific software installation or configuration instructions are required, they will be emailed to you in advance of the training.

This is mainly required for certification courses.
