Trilateral staff development and exchange program NW-SU-UHH

Learning with and from each other – across three continents

The strategic partners Northwestern University (NW), Stellenbosch University (SU) and Universität Hamburg (UHH) are initiating a trilateral staff exchange program for their administrative staff to learn with and from each other.

The program is designed to run for three years, piloting in 2022. In each year, one of the partners will host a weeklong training for participants from all three partner institutions on a specific topic. The selection of topics is based on the particular expertise of the hosting institution as well as the transfer opportunities for the partners.

The goal of the program is to learn new skills and gain international experience together as well as to encourage personal and professional development.

Participants from university administration whose area of work is related to the respective program topic offered are welcome to apply for the program. A new call for application is published every year.
