The University of Porto organizes an International Staff Training Week open to administrative staff from International Offices.

With this initiative, we intend to open the University of Porto to our partners and to all interested foreign universities in order to strengthen international cooperation by encouraging the exchange of best practices and experiences.

The programme is designed with the intention to offer an enriching international and intercultural learning experience and the opportunity to discuss interesting and important topics. The issues are typically exposed through interactive group sessions including workshops and short certificated training courses, among others activities.

In order to make more comfortable the organization of the participants’ travel to Porto, a centralized procedure in our office is ensured for accommodation and meals at special rates for our guests. The fee, established prior to the event taking into consideration the current rates for that season, includes:

  • Accommodation (in a Hotel in Porto downtown close to the main touristic attractions and also to the Rectorate – 10 min. walking distance) for 6 nights in a single room with breakfast included;
  • Information Kit;
  • Visit to the University Facilities;
  • Networking activities;
  • Workshops;
  • Lunches;
  • Coffee-breaks;
  • 1 Multicultural Dinner;
  • Certificate of attendance

In order to cover a wider scope in terms of represented HEIs, a maximum of 2 participants per same university will be considered. A total number of participants up to 40 will be accepted on the basis of position basis, experience, motivation and home institution to ensure the above mentioned balance.
