IRO Valencia is a five-day international training and coaching event that aims to improve the key professional skills of Int. Officers from ETSIAMN Partner Institutions. Participants will have the opportunity to work on their technical and social abilities in an authentic international setting.
Upon completing the course, participants will have strengthened their planning, leadership, management, team-building and decision-making skills, and increased their competence in University International Relations, both at institutional and personal level.
The event lasts 25 hours, divided into five hours of work sessions per day. Fees: 350 € per person, including work materials, welcome paella meal, guided visit on the UPV campus, and farewell lunch. Extracurricular activities (not included in course fees): guided tour in old town Valencia, Spanish food cooking session and Valencia Fallas visit.
Small work groups are created along the scheduled activities. Sessions involve specific coaching workshops, group dynamics, topic oriented seminars, open debate, applied language and IT training, team work, and a powerful human-based operative framework.
Partcipants are expected to obtain Erasmus+ mobility grants from their home institutions to cover the travel, living and acommodation expenses related to their participation in the event.
Target group is university staff (teaching and non-teaching) dealing with international issues, not strictly international officers working in exchange programmes' offices.
Work language for all activities (but the Spanish Language training course) will be English
Looking forward to welcoming you next May in Valencia
