“DIVERSITY MANAGEMENT AND THE SUCCESFUL ORGANIZATION OF AN ERASMUS+ BLENDED INTENSIVE PROGRAMME, ERASMUS+ BIP”

 

 

The University of Cyprus organizes its 13th Erasmus+ Staff Training Week in Nicosia, Cyprus.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES AND OUTCOMES 

The aim of this staff week is to share knowledge and learn from each other’s practices, challenges, and experiences using group discussions and techniques in the subject of staff week.

The themes of this year’s staff week are  Diversity Management and the successful organization of an Erasmus Blended Intensive Programme.

There will be two specific workshops.

The first one will be dedicated on ‘Diversity management‘. This  is an organizational process used to promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace. This process involves implementing policies and strategies in hiring, management, training, and more. During the Diversity management workshop, we will explore ideas on how to implement diversity management in our everyday work.

In the second workshop we will go through step by step the process of the ‘Organization of a successful Erasmus+ Blended Intensive programme, BIP’, following the example of colleagues who have already organized BIPs with success.

TARGET GROUPS

This year’s staff week addresses members of staff dealing with BIP and inclusion officers, Erasmus Officers, RO officers, and people dealing with diversity management through the Erasmus+ programme.

The staff week will include presentations and workshops relevant to diversity management and organization of a BIP. Each participant will be encouraged to exchange ideas and good practices, discuss the challenges in their workplace and enhance their relations for potential cooperation.
