Intercultural Workshops
Table of contents
Our workshops for intercultural qualification comprise three workshop types, either focusing on general, culture-specific or topic-specific training courses.
Participating in our workshops will help you expand your intercultural skills and will also increase your understanding of and capacity to interact with members of our university and target groups coming from different cultural backgrounds.
This training can be credited towards the Cultural Expertise and Excellence certificates. To obtain the certificate, you will need to complete the required workshops – one on general intercultural skills and two topic- oder culture-specific workshops.
We would like to emphasize that there is limited capacity for participation in these workshops! If you are unable to take part, please inform us via email. If you are unable to attend an intercultural workshop you registered for and do not inform us, or only notify us of your absence after 12:00 pm the day before without a valid reason, an attendance restriction of six months will come into effect and you will be unable to participate in our events during this period.
