General Terms and Conditions

All declarations relating to this contract must be made in writing.
Upon registration, the respective contract text is saved on our server. The contract language is German.
The following terms and conditions apply to the contractual relationship with a participant.

§1 Price
The course costs plus VAT include the following services:

  • Participation in all teaching events
  • examination and document fees
  • the delivery of the course documents and the course certificate
  • Lunch, snacks, hot and cold drinks

Upon submission of an education voucher via the Qualification Opportunities Act, you will be invoiced for the difference to the course costs.

§2 Invoice
You will receive the invoice with your confirmation of enrolment. Please refer to the invoice for the payment deadline. In the event of late payment, we reserve the right to suspend our services to you.

§3 Admission requirements
The admission requirements for the course are described on our homepage www.eod-academy.de. They must be verified by the participant and submitted in the form of copies upon registration. If a clearance certificate in accordance with § 34(2) of the 1st SprengV is required, this must be applied for in good time and submitted in the original at the latest at the start of the course, as well as sent in advance by email. If you are already in possession of a clearance certificate, this must be valid up to and including the end of the course. If applicable, a certificate of competence (for the refresher course) (BefS) §20 SprengG must be presented at the time of registration.
This must still be valid or there must be a corresponding extension from the responsible
Office for Occupational Health and Safety/Trade Supervision. If this is not the case, the previous certificate of competence may become invalid at the time of renewal at the authority and therefore an extension of the certificate of competence cannot be carried out.
When registering for the basic course, appropriate evidence such as diplomas/certificates/periods of employment must be submitted. Publicly certified copies are sufficient.

§4 Data protection
The new EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force on 25 May 2018.

We process your personal data in our IT systems for the purpose of sending you our training programme, for invoicing, for general business transactions with you and to provide you with information material before and after our training courses and seminars.
We use your data exclusively for our own purposes and do not pass it on to third parties.
The accounting retention periods require the retention of invoices and documents relating to business transactions in accordance with the specified periods, which we will observe.
We would like to continue to provide you with information, invitations and news.

The personal data provided for course purposes, in particular name, address, telephone number, date of birth, which are required solely for the purpose of conducting the courses to be held, are collected on the basis of legal authorisation.

§5 Place of training
Training takes place on the premises and in the outdoor area of the EOD Academy, Pfarrer-Grzondziel-Straße 4, 85465 Langenpreising.
If training courses are to take place at a temporary training centre, the EOD Academy must check the suitability of the training centre beforehand and document the result in accordance with the QM manual. In such a case, the customer shall be informed of this in good time, stating the conditions.

§6 Work materials, attendance and internal regulations
Participation in the training course requires regular attendance in class and at the practical training sessions. Usual documents such as writing and drawing utensils and recording material must be kept ready by the course participant. Should absences occur, the course participant undertakes to compensate for the lost time in the self-study phase.
If the number of hours of absence jeopardises the achievement of the course objective, the course cannot be continued. In the event of an excusable absence that leads to cancellation, the pro rata course fees will be withheld and the remaining credit transferred back. In the event of an unexcused absence, the course fees will not be refunded.
Excusable absences: Illness evidenced by a sick note; absences for which the course participant is not responsible (e.g. family events that cannot be postponed).
Non-excusable absences: any absence without an excusable explanation (e.g. loss of personal suitability and reliability as a result of a court decision).
The participant must follow the instructions of the training supervisor and instructors in the interests of health and safety.
Participants are prohibited from bringing explosive substances and other hazardous materials to the training location/training events.
Misbehaviour and violation of the provisions of the contract will result in exclusion from participation in the course after two written warnings, unless the violation justifies exclusion without notice.

§7 Withdrawal and cancellation
In the event of cancellation without replacement, the following fee will be charged. In the event of cancellation
40 % of the package price up to 4 weeks before the start of the course,
60 % of the package price up to 2 weeks before the start of the course,
100 % of the package price from 1 week before the start of the course.
In the event of cancellation for all other courses
40% of the package price up to 2 weeks before the start of the course,
60 % of the package price up to 1 week before the start of the course,
100 % of the package price from 3 calendar days before the start of the course.

§8 Severability clause
The invalidity of individual provisions shall not affect the validity of the remaining General Terms and Conditions.

§9 Supplements
The EOD Academy submits a training or further education offer to the course participant, which is accepted in a legally binding manner by the interested party with the binding online registration. The necessary admission requirements must be checked in advance, preferably with our support.
The contractual services include the direct transfer of knowledge, the teaching material as well as lunch, hot and cold drinks and snacks.
Additional services such as travel and accommodation are not part of the contract. These bookings are made at the participant’s expense and risk. The EOD Academy will not assume any costs incurred by the participant if a course has to be postponed or cancelled. Reasons for this may be: illness of the instructor or failure to reach the minimum number of participants.
The start date, duration and training objectives of the course vary and are legally binding based on the respective registration. Information on this can be found at www.eod-academy.de. Registration for the respective courses is subject to the relevant regulations, which must also be documented in the form of proof, e.g. a valid and current health and safety certificate.

he EOD Academy accepts no liability whatsoever for the passing of the examination in the case of training and further training in preparation for an official or other examination.
Each participant undertakes vis-à-vis the EOD Academy not to sell the scripts handed out to him/her to third parties or to make them available for their use. Reproduction of the documents is prohibited, as is the provision of information to third parties on the basis of the course documents.
Classroom training events will only be organised if a minimum number of eight participants is reached. The decisive factor is the timely receipt of a sufficient number of binding registrations. Different arrangements are possible in individual cases.
If a course cannot take place because the minimum number of participants has not been reached, the participant must be informed immediately. Payments made up to that point will be refunded immediately.
Courses cancelled due to the illness of a lecturer will be rescheduled for a later date or a substitute lecturer will be appointed. The same applies in cases of force majeure.
If the interested party is unable to attend the alternative date, the participation fee will be credited for one year and can also be used for another course. In the latter case, the difference will be refunded.
The course participant is obliged to pay the agreed fee to the course organiser.
Payment shall be made by bank transfer to the course organiser’s account.
The participant has a limited right of cancellation. The statutory cancellation period of 14 days after conclusion of the contract applies. The cancellation must be submitted in writing.
The right to extraordinary cancellation for good cause remains unaffected.

An important reason for cancellation by the EOD Academy is in particular

  • if there is an urgent suspicion of a criminal offence
  • if the participant defaults on payment after the third unsuccessful reminder
  • if a significant breach of trust has occurred due to the behaviour of the participants in the lessons
  • after an ineffective warning due to disruptive behaviour of the participant towards other participants, lecturers or employees of the EOD Academy.

The following applies to the use of an education voucher:
Acceptance of the training voucher by the course organiser is only possible up to 4 weeks before the start of the course at the latest; this also applies to courses that have already been booked.
