You can enrol in the courses by paying the course fee at the online store of CampusSport. Please note that everyone has to make the enrolment and pay the course fee personally. The course will take place only if the minimum number of participants is reached. The participants will get a verification on whether the course will take place at the latest three working days before the course starts. If the course gets cancelled the paid course fees will be returned. Course enrolments are binding and they cannot be cancelled. Course fees are reimbursed only in cases of illness against a medical certificate in case the customer misses more than half of the course meetings.
