These online courses target primarily staff at the partner central banks and supervisory authorities. Our goal is to provide an international forum for the exchange of ideas, opinions and thoughts, which is intended to go beyond the mere transfer of specialist expertise. In order to encourage the usual lively debate and to promote multilateral networking, the number of participants is restricted. We therefore expect the participants to take an active part in the whole course. Participants who attend the sessions up to a minimum of 75 percent will receive a certficate. Please note that the scheduled times given in the descriptions are always local time Frankfurt am Main.
