Invitation to the Online Information Event
CAT – Curriculum Administration Tool | 1 June 2026, 10:00 a.m. (German only)
Two years ago, we set out to develop CAT – Curriculum Administration Tool as part of a broader initiative to digitalize the student life cycle.
We would like to invite you to an online event on 1 June 2026 at 10:00 a.m., where we will be sharing a project update. The event is aimed at all interested staff and faculty at the participating universities. It will be your first chance to explore the platform before the project enters its pilot phase in October 2026 and the software begins rolling out across universities.
We hope you will join us; registration is open to all, please sign up via Termino to receive the access link:
