The learning platform  used by East European Studies offers you a complete study environment. You find the contents of the modules as well as helpful material. You submit your tasks through this system as well. For virtual communication and data exchange with your colleagues, various functions are available. Discussion board and e-mail functions are of fundamental importance for communication among your fellows and instructors. Data can easily be transferred to electronic drop boxes as well as file sharing storages. E-mail function, real-time chats and virtual classrooms provide you with opportunities to communicate directly and efficiently about contending issues.

East European Studies guarantees that you will receive individual tutoring and feedback, guidance and attention during your online studies as well as during the in-house classes. The program team is always available for support and counselling. Instructors answer questions concerning individual modules and advise in regard to tasks. Technical support is provided constantly. We are also very much interested in students' feedback and act upon it.

The four regular in-house classes in Berlin are short enough to be compatible with your leave days and long enough to meet your fellow students and each instructor. The participants are very international from Indonesia to Belarus, the US and plenty of other European states. They have all sorts of background (from business people with an interest in Eastern Europe to journalists, architects, social workers etc.). The alternation of in-house and online periods results in blended learning. You will acquire soft skills and social competences such as the ability to work in an international team. Last but not least, never forget: You will have fun and get to know interesting people and can share your opinions and interests with them!
