 D, Communication (5 seats)

How we work with digital ads to find the students and get them to find us.

Kristianstad University is the eight most applied university in Sweden, but considering the two types of different universities we have in Sweden ours is the most applied in our category. Our students finds us via different types of digital ads and we have almost no print ads going. We work with google ads, facebook ads and create content that applies to our students. We do much of the work in-house and have different expertise in our team. Are you interested in digitalization? Take the chance to visit us during staff training week!

 

 E, Financial/Accounting Administrator (10 seats)

Procedures, systems etc.

Economic model at Kristianstad University/at the visiting Universities, visiting an education/research facility, group seminar questions related to "Purchases and E-procurement" and "Human Relations".

 

F, Innovation, Implementation and Impact (20 seats)

How to drive innovation and implement sustainable change in your programs.

Change is a constant factor in our society; at our workplace, implementing new procedures, programs or interventions. But how do we know if the change actually improves things or what factors that prevent the change to be applied? In order to interpret change and make the right decisions, it is necessary to have an understanding of how Innovation, Implementation and Impact function in order to generate sustainability.  

This two-day course will give you insight into the importance of understanding Innovation, Implementation and Impact in organisational or project-based circumstances, such as in European projects for example.  The days will be combined with theoretical knowledge and practical exercises based on real-world examples, together with group discussions.   

This staff training course is suitable for anyone that works in a university as an administrator, teacher, project manager or researcher.
