Get to know two countries and two universities in one week!

The Technical University of Liberec (TUL) and Zittau/Goerlitz University (HSZG) are pleased to invite European partners and academic institutions worldwide to our first jointly held cross-border Erasmus+ Staff Training Week! Take the opportunity to explore two universities and their cultural settings in one week! The event will be held from 13 to 17 May 2019 in both the Czech Republic and Germany. The preliminary programme see below.

We are looking forward to welcoming colleagues especially from international offices and admissions units. We accept a maximum of 25 persons limited to two per institution. The working language will be English.

The main objectives of the staff week are

• to exchange best practices of international activities among colleagues working in internationalization,
• to investigate requirements and elements of emergency action plans,
• to discuss mobility management methods with focus on application procedures and the respective digital instruments and
• to identify successful marketing strategies to increase student and staff mobility activities in general.

Participants will have the opportunity to present their home university in two mini-student fairs at both TUL and HSZG.

We will charge a participation fee of 100 EUR which will cover the transport from TUL to HSZG in Zittau and Goerlitz, lunch from Monday to Thursday, dinner on Tuesday (Liberec, CZ) and Thursday (Zgorzelec, PL) and the Goerlitz guided tour. In addition, there will be an optional brewery and castle visit in the Czech Republic on Friday (€ 25,-).

Participants may be eligible to apply for an Erasmus+ Staff Training grant in order to cover costs related to this mobility (transportation, accommodation etc.). Please refer to your institution’s international office for further information!

Application deadline: 15 March 2019

Participants will be provided with information on accommodation in the application process. Please refer to our Erasmus+ office at erasmus@tul.cz if you need any further information!

See you soon in Liberec and Zittau/Goerlitz!
