How to think of internationalisation in link to accreditation

29. Apr 2020 | HOW TO webinar series, Webinars

In these Corona-times it seems that internationalisation in our field is currently frozen in space. However, we need to keep the internationalisation momentum with the international community  going.

Internationalisation at home and among the international community can be linked to accreditation on various levels and for various stakeholders: education, research, services, students, alumni, faculty, corporate world and more.

The focus of this webinar is how to maintain, audit and build a strong portfolio of partnerships. This requires well-considered strategic choices to guarantee quality of a good partnership management to develop collaboration activities in the context of internationalisation of education.
