FAQ

What are the requirements for the course?

The Academy is a series, participants must register for all four parts. The condition for participation is the conclusion of a contract for the provision of educational services by EDIH Cybersecurity Innovation Hub with your (Czech) company or organization no later than the start of the first course.

The decision to sign up for a course must be made by the management of the company - these are not courses for the general public.

How will the course work?

The courses are planned as interactive. Active participation via video conferencing will be required. We will also collect feedback.

Is the academy really free?

Our EDIH services are free of charge for Czech SMEs and public organisations. Our services are funded from public sources - from the European Union's Digital Europe programme and the Czech National Recovery Plan. Thanks to this, you will not pay anything at all.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes, after passing the final test.

I'm interested in attending, but I'm planning a vacation.
