Six universities working together on professional development for teaching and learning
Are you eager to learn more about the latest educational developments and learn from colleagues from other universities? Then this is your chance to be part of a national collaboration, specifically designed to bring you together with a diverse community of teaching staff from different institutions.
From March 15th 2024 onwards, university teaching staff will have even greater opportunities to learn and develop by participating in a national initiative, created by six Dutch universities. From Rotterdam to Maastricht, Amsterdam to Groningen: face-to-face meetings, online courses, webinars, and hybrid activities will be offered at various locations, dates, and times in 2024. This allows educators to delve deeper into relevant topics such as innovative technologies, diversity and inclusivity, assessment, sustainable development goals or (inter)disciplinary education. These six institutions enable teachers to choose from a rich, diverse offering that aligns with their own development needs and professional interests, without being bound to a fixed location.
Eligibility criteria for staff to participate:
- You are employed and have formal teaching duties at one of the participating universities (Open Universiteit, Radboud University Nijmegen, Maastricht University, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Erasmus University Rotterdam, or University of Groningen).
- In most cases, it is of added value if you have already obtained the University Teaching Qualification (UTQ/BKO).
- Certain activities offered are only available in Dutch or English. To participate in these, you require sufficient proficiency in the language offered.
The opportunities available during the first half of 2024 are available below and will be updated regularly.
