Attendance of classes has direct impact on the quality of knowledge acquired hence our attitude to absenteeism is negative. Students, who missed more than 40% of classes of a certain course are not allowed to take an exams or credit. Though we realize that the job of top managers is highly responsible, which may result in being absent at some classes.

Presence of students at the lessons, their participation in discussions and other activities in the classroom is indispensable and important component of performance evaluation.
