Attendance of all educational activities contemplated in the study programme is mandatory. The logistical changes ushered in for part-time students by Art. 11, paragraph 7, subpart (i) of Ministerial Decree no. 270 (22 October 2004) are not compatible with the mandatory timeframes, and pre-professional training intrinsic to this Master's degree programme, nor the mandatory scheduling and organisational demands required of the students' clinical practice.
To be allowed to sit the for-credit exam, students must have attended at least 75% of the formal and informal educational programming contemplated for each course. Should a student's attendance fall short of the required attendance level, instructors may assign alternative educational activities, including self-study, which the student must complete and submit before being allowed to sit a given exam. Attendance of all practical training is mandatory, and cannot be fulfilled through other means.
