SHORT ADVANCED PROGRAMME
SAP Challenge for Staff
2nd edition
14 September 2023
RUN-EU is an alliance of higher education institutions drawn from all regions of Europe.
The EU and RUN-EU both aim to foster common understanding, further development, and trust among its members, which brings certain challenges.
The Short Advanced Programme (SAP) ‘Challenge for Staff’ will help prepare staff for those challenges by addressing questions such as:
- What is this world of RUN-EU?
- What does it mean to promote a European University that embodies the values of sustainability, multiculturalism, and inclusiveness in all its work? How can I navigate my way through it?
- How can I operate and work effectively in such a multicultural and multilingual context among the alliance regions?
The aim of this SAP is to develop staff awareness among RUN-EU that contributes to its mission, aims, and goals.
Supported by mobility, innovative pedagogies and blended learning activities, the programme also aims to contribute to societal needs, lifelong learning, and training in a work environment.
This SAP Challenge is jointly organised by the Polytechnic University of Cávado and Ave (IPCA), and the University of Győr – Széchenyi Istvan University (SZE).
