Are you a professional working in career services, university libraries, research support, welcome services or international affairs?  ​

Then we are happy to invite you to participate in Freie Universität Berlin’s 11th International Staff Training Week 2023, which will take place for five full days from June 26 to June 30, 2023.

Five different units of Freie Universität Berlin’s central university administration, the Career Service, the Welcome Service for staff, the University Library, the Research Support Office as well as the Office of International Affairs have created a total of six interactive programs to engage with colleagues from all over the world during the week. The programs will allow enough time for sharing expertise, developing competences and peer learning as well as for networking, strengthening partnerships and socially interacting with colleagues from all four track.

Career Service Program

The recent crises are massively changing the global labour market. University career services have to adapt quickly to new tools and new ways of reaching out to students and recruiters. What challenges do they face and how do the changes in the world of work impact the future career services landscape in higher education?

In the Career Service track, we want to develop and discuss solutions together with other career service experts from around the world to best support students on their way into professional life.
