iPad campaign

If the student fulfils the online study contract in accordance with the agreement and successfully completes his studies, ownership of the iPad is transferred to the student when the online study contract ends.

If the distance learning contract ends prematurely (e.g. because one party cancels it or for other reasons), the student must return the iPad in working condition within one week of the contract ending. The return is at the student's expense via a courier arranged by the external service provider. The external service provider will handle any case of a technical defect, battery replacement, or other technical issues. The details are specified in the usage agreement.
