6 ECTS combined certificate

With the Kombi-Schein Kontaktforum Wirtschaft, you can add 6 ECTS to your elective courses in by taking part in valuable workshops and cleverly combining your study achievements.

This is how it works:

  1. Attend both rhetoric courses: Rhetoric of Conversation in the winter semester and Rhetoric of Presentation Technique in the summer semester (each graded, 2 ECTS each).
  2. Take part in three workshops of your choice as part of our Contact Forum Business programme and collect certificates of attendance.
  3. Mark on the exam sheet of your rhetoric course whether you would like the combined certificate - or whether you would like the rhetoric courses to be recognised separately.
  4. Have the combined certificate with 6 ECTS issued at the end.

Rhetoric courses - The art of speech.

In our public speaking courses, you have the opportunity to improve your presentation and dialogue techniques in a targeted manner - skills that will help you both in your studies and later in your professional life.

The programme is aimed exclusively at students of the Faculty of Business, Economics and Real Estate (with the exception of the Master's degree in Management Information Systems). Crediting of 2 ECTS in elective courses in the programme is possible.

Basics of presentation technology

Whether it's a discussion, team meeting or conflict dialogue - here you will learn how to prepare and conduct conversations with confidence. The course not only includes theory, but also lots of practical exercises and role plays. This allows you to try out how you come across in different dialogue situations - and get direct feedback on how you can improve.

→ Take place regularly in the summer semester.

The basics of dialogue

In the conversation management course, you will learn how to prepare conversations, conduct them confidently and deal with conflicts. You can try out and improve your conversational behaviour directly in practical exercises and role plays.

→ Take place regularly in the winter semester.

Combination licence

Combine both rhetoric courses with participation in three workshops from our Kontaktforum Wirtschaft programme and have 6 ECTS credited to your elective courses in this way. You can find more information here.

Voices of our members of the teaching staff

“By taking part in the course, you will learn how to present your message clearly and convincingly, overcome stage fright, create effective visual aids and respond confidently to questions from the audience.”

Kathrin Winkler

“The rhetoric courses support students in their transition to professional life with a view to divisions and presentations, oral examinations, job interviews and team meetings.”
