A Coronavirus Event is an event or delay caused by, or arising from or in relation to the Coronavirus (being Covid19/ SARS-COV2 Coronavirus or any mutation or development thereof) epidemic or pandemic that prevents, postpones, cancels or delays any bookings, sales or refunds by Young Sietar under this agreement and other contracts with third parties, or performance of any obligations by the Company under this contract, including (but not limited to) losses and disruptions which caused such delay or postponement of sale, bookings or refunds.
The event team will respect the current pandemic related measures in place in Luxembourg. As of May 1, there are no restrictions in public places anymore, except from wearing a mask in public transport.
The current Covid19-policy in Luxembourg can be consulted here.

During online registration, you will not be asked to provide any proof of your membership. However, at the end of August 2022 the orga team might ask to provide some kind of a proof of your SIETAR membership. If you are a member of Young SIETAR, we will get this information in our system. If you are not yet a member of Young SIETAR, please join first and then register for the event.Are there any grants for TOIT+ 2022 participants?

I need a visa to enter Luxembourg, can I receive an invitation letter?
Yes. Please contact secretary@youngsietar.org in case you need an invitation letter.
Do I get my money back if I do not get a visa?
No. Unfortunately, we do not process refunds. It is officially stated at TOIT registration page and we cannot make exceptions.
In case you need a visa, we would kindly ask you to first contact secretary@youngsietar.org to get an invitation letter.

Yes, there is a the day-to-day agenda finalized by the trainers. It is decided that the detailed agenda will be sent out to participants closer to the first day of the training as a part of the e-Welcome Booklet.
Can I participate only in a part of TOIT+ 2022? Can I arrive one day later/leave one day earlier? Is there a reduced contribution for that?
No. If you arrive later or leave earlier, it would be both unproductive for you and disruptive for the rest of us. We ask you to commit the whole time. There is no reduced contribution for such cases.
