To get an overview of the ZID’s IT courses, use the following link: IT courses in u:rise

The IT courses are held by experienced external trainers and employees of the University of Vienna. For further information, please read the detailed description of the IT course of your choice in u:rise.

The majority of IT courses are held in the form of online webinars. If it is a class room course, it usually takes place in the ZID Class Room 1, Universitätsstraße 7 (NIG, Neues Institutsgebäude), 1010 Vienna, ground floor, stairs 3.

You can find an overview of all courses in u:rise. If you have any further special wishes, please use the form IT-Kurse des ZID (IT courses of the ZID, in German).

Please note the required previous knowledge specified in the detailed description of the IT course of your choice and make a realistic assessment of your previous knowledge.

Register for IT courses in u:rise. To do so, you require an active u:account for students or employees.

For a binding registration for fee-based courses, you have to pay the fee online.

Many courses have a limited number of places. If the maximum number of participants has been reached, you can ask to be put on the waiting list. You will be notified if a place becomes available.  

After having completed an IT course, all participants will receive a confirmation of participation.

Lectures are free of admission and publicly accessible.

The following applies to all other IT courses: 

• Employees can register for these free of charge.
• Students have to pay a small fee, which must be paid online when registering for the course.

You can find the costs in the detailed description of the IT course of your choice in u:rise.

If the number of registered people is too low 14 days before the scheduled course date, the IT course may be cancelled. All participants who have already registered will receive a notification via e-mail.

If you have already paid for an IT course and it is cancelled, you will receive a refund of the fee paid in the form of a credit balance. You can use this credit balance to pay for another IT course. You can see the amount credited in u:rise under My bookings.

If you are unable to attend an IT course, you can cancel your registration up to 14 days before the start of the course. To do so, go to u:rise and under My bookings click Cancel purchase. This option is not available less than 14 days before the start of the course, as in this case the fee is to be paid in full. It is not possible to rebook for a different IT course.

If you would like the credit balance to be paid out, the ZID needs the following account details from you:

• IBAN
• Account holder

Send this information together with the request for repayment to training.zid(at)univie.ac.at. The repayment of the fee can take up to two weeks.

If you deregister from an course less than 14 days before the scheduled course date, you will have to pay 100 % of the fee. You cannot transfer the fee to another IT course.
