Topic outline

  • How do I register in a course?

    Explore the available courses. Once you find a course you are interested in taking, you should first create an account, then simply send an enrolment request by clicking on the "Enrol me" button under the course description.

  • How are the courses?

    Each course is like an interactive text book, featuring lesson, quizzes, exercises and sometimes videos. All courses are designed to be completed at the participant's own pace. So you can re-read or re-peat as needed. Most of the courses also suggest links to other resources.

  • Do I have to pay to enrol in a course?

    No. All courses are offered free of charge.

  • Can anyone propose a new course topic?

    As a cultural heritage professional, you can also be the instructor of a new course that you create, or you can propose a new course topic. We will do our best to make your course available.

  • Do I get a certificate after finishing one of the online courses?

    As we are not a teaching institute and these tutorials are meant for self development, we do not provide any certificate of completion. You will notice that there are no exams or test within the course, so there is no way for us to evaluate the participants' performance in the course.

  • What can I do if I have a question while taking a course?

    Simply right an e-mail to moocs@dainst.de and our team will get back to you as soon as they can.
