Leibniz Universität Hannover, the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), and the German Rectors’ Conference (HRK)

are jointly organising the DIES-Training Course "Management of Internationalization".

The key objective of the training course is to qualify university staff (either International Office staff or higher education managers responsible for coordinating international activities) from selected countries of Africa, Latin America, and 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 course focusses on four thematic modules. Each unit offers a balance between conceptual learning and practice oriented training, management skills as well as soft skills.

Module 1: Internationalisation: Concepts, Systems and Actors
Module 2: Competences and Key Tasks of an International Office (IO)
Module 3: Soft Skills
Module 4: Management Skills
