SAVE-THE-DATE: Training on Virtual Exchange and blended mobility integration

Save the Date: May 2 to May 29 2022 (4 weeks)

We are happy to announce the upcoming ‘FRAMES Collaborative online Training on Virtual Exchange and blended mobility integration’. This training is of specific interest for IRO staff and related offices (mobility officers, educational offer, career offices), IT staff, management and educational leaders as well as academic staff of any interested HEI. The training course aims to develop the participants’ capacity to design, implement, assess and multiply relevant mobility schemes enriched by Virtual Exchange (VE). As such, this training course does not focus on VE project design, but rather on the opportunities linked to the integration and accreditation of this innovative pedagogy in the curriculum and within the institutional strategies.

The innovative feature of the training consists in its experiential, connectivist and project-based approach, whereby expert trainers from UNICollaboration and Sharing Perspectives Foundation will support participants  as they work collaboratively on tasks and activities that will be both asynchronous (fora, materials to read and watch, and weekly tasks) and synchronous (weekly meetings via Zoom – 2 options per week). Supported by the trainers, participants collaborate with their colleagues to develop a hands-on  action  plan for the  successful integration and accreditation of VE at your institution.

More information about the training course and how to participate is available here

We encourage you to share this information with any interested colleagues.
