Brand new EAIE Webinars set to launch!
The EAIE is excited to announce the launch of its brand new style of training: EAIE Academy – Webinars. Designed to provide busy international educators with quick blasts of crucial knowledge in an interactive format accessible from anywhere in the world, EAIE Webinars could provide the boost you need to take your career to the next level. The new webinars take their place within the well-established EAIE Academy family which includes ‘in the city’ and ‘in-house’ training.
If the EAIE Webinars were an Italian beverage, they’d be an espresso. Short bursts of vital knowledge to fuel your daily tasks. Each webinar lasts 60–75 minutes, has two trainers and caters to individuals with one specific learning need. These instant knowledge shots are intended to help you maximise your efficiency and productivity to ultimately progress in your field.
Utilising the EAIE knowledge base
Led by trained experts, EAIE Webinars pack in the most useful tools and tips which can be applied instantly to your daily work. Chair of the EAIE Professional Development Committee, Peter Kerrigan explains the thinking behind the new initiative: “The EAIE is looking to broaden its portfolio of training activities and delivering content to a larger audience. Webinars are an extremely useful tool in making the incredible breadth of expertise within the EAIE community available to professionals who might not be able to attend an on-site event.”
Digestible knowledge
The amount of knowledge existing in the vast field of international higher education can be overwhelming. EAIE Webinars aim to break down this knowledge into digestible chunks. With each webinar focusing on one specific dimension of a certain topic, they enable you to top up your knowledge tank easily, in a way which satisfies both time and budget. Interactivity is key, with the webinars featuring quizzes, Q&A sessions and discussions to help you find the answers to your critical questions. In a nutshell:
- Gain practical know-how and become more effective and confident in your job
- Discover innovative tips and tricks, key tactics and essential tools
- Acquire quick solutions for quick results in a cost-effective way
- Benefit from top-notch content in a user-friendly format
- Hear how higher education experts deal with the same pain points
- Learn what the latest developments in European higher education mean for your daily job
- Participate in exercises and discussions to get answers to your most urgent questions
The first EAIE webinars, launching in spring 2014, will focus on marketing and credential evaluation. Sign up now and be the first one to find out when registration opens. And don’t forget the other EAIE training available to you: if you’re after more comprehensive, in-depth training covering an entire topic, then the EAIE Academy ‘in the city’ courses or EAIE Academy ‘in house’ training could be what you need.
