DIES-TRAINING COURSE MANAGEMENT OF INTERNATIONALISATION 2014/2015 - Deadline for application 2 May 2014


The key objective of the training course is to qualify university staff from Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, to manage processes and tasks of internationalisation  in  the  area  of  higher  education.  The programme  will  enable  the participants to build up improved and more effective structures of internationalisation at their home universities.

The programme consists of three workshops and in depth e-learning phases. The three interconnected workshops will take place on 1-12 September 2014, March/April 2015 and 21-30 September 2015. To guarantee the most individual-tailored training, the participants will receive reading and working material shortly after their selection. Thus, they will begin the analysis in their home countries 8-10 weeks before the first workshop in Hannover takes place. This initial material aims to provide an insight in conceptual issues, as well as to foster the reflection on the individual/institutional status quo.
