About the Programme:
This 3-day programme, offered by our Capacity Development Office, will be academically led by Emeritus professor and former Dutch Minister of Education, Prof. Dr. Jo Ritzen.
Aimed at senior university staff, this course offers insight into a variety of university financing mechanisms and will provide leaders from diverse educational systems the space to make connections while expanding their leadership and financing strategies. The programme will include three days of seminars by Professor Ritzen along with guest speakers. The state of art of university leadership will be included in the curriculum, and best practice examples as well as sub-optimal outcome cases will be discussed. Specific attention is given to peer learning and network building among participants. In specifically designed interactive exercises, participants will be introduced to each others educational systems and provide feedback to contextual cases. Through networking activities, connections are made that will allow participants to build on throughout their careers.
Participants will finish the programme well equipped to chart their course in building better educational opportunities for students. Successful completion will be awarded with a UNU-MERIT/Maastricht University digital badge.
