Training
Six seminars and training sessions on issues of specific interest to academics complement the participants' counselling and support via mentoring. The seminars support the women scholars in planning their careers and preparing for future appointment procedures.
Participants deepen their knowledge on leadership and management tasks associated with a professorship, get to know professional leadership techniques and develop their strategic competencies. Further important topics are the challenges of reform processes and current forms of higher education management, opportunities to influence higher education policy and the acquisition of third-party funding.
Round table discussions with experts from universities, scientific organisations and other relevant institutions are an integral part of the seminars in order to enhance the transfer of experience and knowledge as well as networking.
