STUDY PLAN

You are in charge of your own study plan, based on the following rules:

1) Your studies are divided into years.

2) The study plan for a particular year consists of obligatory courses and optional courses.

3) Obligatory courses are mandatory and are generated from the system automatically.

4) Register the optional courses for the given year into a timetable for the given semester and in line with the

course teaching programme for the academic year in the Student Information System (SIS) at

https://is.cuni.cz/studium/eng/index.php

5) Register courses before the beginning of each semester.

6) The minimum number of credits to complete the Bachelor study programme is 180 credits, for the Masters

study programme (post-Bachelor) it is 120 credits.

7) Each course is rated with a certain number of credits. This number usually varies from 1 to 6 credits per

course. When developing your own study plan you must count your credits carefully, so that you do not end the

academic year with insufficient number of credits. If this happens, it means that you cannot be registered for

the following year of study. The minimum values of credits for transfer to the next year are presented in the

Rules for the Organisation of Study at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport (in the "Yellow

book").

The dates for registration, teaching and review of study results are governed by the Academic Calendar and

other announcements from the International Students Office.

CHARLES UNIVERSITY CENTRAL AUTHENTICATION SERVICE

The purpose of the Central Authentication Service (CAS) is:

To verify the identity of users using a log-on name and password for:

- Charles University Information System applications

- The eduID.cz federation which gives access to many service providers, in particular for

Issuing personal TCS certificates The Charles University electronic resources portal

The MEFANET medical teaching portals

The Moodle e-learning system

You can log on to CAS at: https://ldap1.cuni.cz/ website

The purpose of CAS is to simplify applications login for users in such a way that they can use the same username

and password everywhere.

Login name - for your login name you can use either your faculty login name, or your personal number, which is

printed on your Charles University ID - under the photograph.

Page 10: Faculty of Physical Education and Sport Charles University ... · The Student Information System (SIS) is used at Charles University for registering courses, signing up for the timetable

10

Password - your initial password is generated when you visit the ID issue centre. This password is time-limited to 10

days, therefore you must change it soon. If you fail to do this, you will have to collect a new initial password. Your

password can be reset at any time at: https://ldap1.cuni.cz/reset

Forgotten password - if you forget your password you can change it at: https://ldap1.cuni.cz/reset by giving certain

personal information. But please note that a password obtained in this way is not considered secure and you will lose

access to certain applications. For full renewal of access to all applications you will have to collect a new initial

password in person. You can do this at the ID issue centre.

STUDENT INFORMATION SYSTEM (SIS)

The Student Information System (SIS) is used at Charles University for registering courses, signing up for the

timetable and deadlines for tests and examinations, submission of your bachelor dissertation, etc.

At the beginning it is very important that you enter your personal data correctly and completely into the SIS. If

you fail to do this, there will be difficulties with communications between yourself and the faculty and you may fail to

receive important information. This responsibility is based on Dean's Instruction No. 6/2010.

Registering in the SIS - you can register at https://is.cuni.cz/studium/login.php

To register you will need your login name and password - details are given in the preceding chapter Central

Authentication Service (CAS).

Page 12: Faculty of Physical Education and Sport Charles University ... · The Student Information System (SIS) is used at Charles University for registering courses, signing up for the timetable

12

REGISTERING COURSES AND TIMETABLE

Courses are registered in the SIS on the dates set out in the Academic Calendar.

Registration of courses and schedule is done through the SIS - Subjects and Schedule Registration

The courses which make up your study plan are divided into obligatory courses and optional courses.

Obligatory courses are mandatory and are generated from the system automatically. It is really important that

you concentrate on fulfilling of these courses, since they are important for moving up to the next year.

To gain the right number of credits, you also have to choose a sufficient number of optional courses.

You can find information on what courses you may and must register at Charles University, Faculty of Physical

Education and Sport Study Plans (the "Yellow book"). All courses you register become mandatory for you. For this

reason check your registration before the registration period expires, and withdraw those optional courses which

you cannot or do not wish to attend. Do not register extra courses – as a backup – you would be freezing capacity for

your fellow students and cause problems with the teaching schedule. We recommend that when registration is

complete to print out the courses for which you have registered (it is best to print out the names of courses together

with the dates).

Keep an eye on current "Information” at: http://www.ftvs.cuni.cz/FTVSEN-30.html

2) Bring the University Study Report (“Index book”) with your study results and Personal Record File to the

Faculty Office and give it to your Faculty Officer.
