5.2. Our courses have at least 7 and at most 18 participants. If enrolments are insufficient on the starting date, we reserve the right to cancel or postpone the course. In this case we will offer the participants the opportunity to move to another course or to receive a full refund of the course fee. We regret that we can only conduct courses that have the minimum number of participants by the end of the enrolment period. To avoid cancellations of courses that would have taken place if participants had enrolled in time, we advise students in their own interests to register before the deadline. In certain circumstances, for classes with less than 8 participants, the course fee remains the same butz the number of classes may be reduced as the smaller class siye provides more personal attention and therefore students will progress through the course at a faster rate. Participants are obliged to comply with the course rules and house rules applicable to the Goethe-Institut.

The liability of GI and its staff is limited to intent and gross negligence. GI also accepts no liability for the cancellation of its services due to force majeur (e.g. natural disasters, fire, floods, war, official orders and all other circumstances beyond the control of the contractual parties). 
The Goethe-Institut reserves the right to cancel or rearrange classes.
