Are you a professional staff member dealing with prospect and current international students?
Join the Staff Training Week (STW) "Get them on board! Enhancing the International Student Experience" from 13 to 17 November 2023 in Bologna.
This staff training week aims to equip university officers with the knowledge and skills necessary to attract international students and create the right environment for them to make the university international community thrive.
We will follow the journey that international students have to face to come and study in our Institutions and we will discover together how the University can support them in the crucial moments of their student experience, from the choice of the University to the bureaucratic difficulties, up to the search for a sense of community.
