Do you also want to decrease the student absenteeism and in the long-term student drop-out rates?

Don’t you think that prevention of absenteeism is so crucial for the academic and social development of  the student?

If yes, Kutahya Dumlupinar University cordially invites you to participate in International Staff  Week on “Student Absenteeism” and “Early School Leaving ”. It is a three-day training organisation aiming to exchange the ideas in the related fields and to make a great deal of contribution to the internationalisation of the universities, it also functions as a dissemination activity for the  Erasmus+ KA2 Strategic Partnership  Project named as "Improving Solutions for Student Absenteeism"  (2016-1-TR01-KA201-034947).

This staff week will be on not only student absenteeism and early school leaving but also Erasmus+ KA2 Strategic Partnerships Projects. Therefore, it will be a great opportunity to improve the inter-institutional relations for networking.

We would like to welcome colleagues from the universities all around the world working in the departments of international relations, educational sciences, sociology, pedagogy, and also staff in the international relations office.

All the sessions will be held in English.

The organisation will be held in the university campus located in Kütahya which is famous for its hot spring water and one of the most preserved Zeus Temple in the World.
