Dear Ghazal,
Here is something to add to your hit list of Munich events: For all intellectuals looking for some extra skills: Take a one day seminar in professional shoe shining in the Munich Institute for Professional Leather Care (the nice color match of the photo with my blog lay-out is as always purely accidental).
hi michael, too bad its already too late to register for this seminar. i really would have like to list it on my cv under “additional skills”. do you know if one gets ecm credit points for attending this seminar, like for university lectures ? but anyhow, i would use any excuse to visit munich again.
take care

Dear Ghazal, they told me they are not qualified to issue ECM credits, since there is very little evidence that polished shoes contribute to a better health. But for the pure technology part, the course members are entitle to ECTS points (two lectures at 0.1 ECTF each, a 3 hour tutorial at 0.2727 ECTF, and the final practical exam can add a factor from 0 to 10 to the total sum of credit points, depending on the grade). Viva Bologna .
Michael
