Recognition procedure

If you would like to have your Service Learning recognized as part of your degree program, e.g., as a practical project, please contact the program coordinator responsible for you at GeKuF or SoBiF in advance to discuss the recognition options and implementation.

Additionally, speak with the course instructor in advance about the modalities. The duration of the Service Learning must be confirmed by the course instructor and the AYCD program (AYCD Pass).

In any case, a report of the same length as the regular internship report must be submitted, in which you reflect on your insights and experiences according to common academic standards.

Important Note: AYCD only acts as a "mediating agency" and does NOT award ECTS credits but only a volunteer certificate. The AYCD Kick-Off and Final Event can be included in the completed hour quota.
