Hi all,
this is a reminder on the Global Skills Award Programme, which is open also to all taught postgraduate students here at BSIS as from this year. The programme comprises a lecture series in this term, covering topics from the Eurozone crisis to Russian politics all the way to state terrorism and ‘the wisdom of psychopaths’.
A second part comprises a workshop series in the spring term, with topics ranging from leadership skills to team working and presentation skills. The programme is designed to broaden your study experience here at BSIS and increase your employability. Upon successful completion of the programme, you will get a Global Skills Award Certificate.
You can find more information in the leaflets that were distributed in the Common Room and by visiting the GSA Brussels website: http://www.kent.ac.uk/graduateschool/skills/programmes/gsabrussels.html
You can now apply online via the university booking system (https://bloom.kent.ac.uk). Applications close on 28th October. All applications will then be dealt with by the Graduate School, which will also inform students about the outcome of the application process. After the application decisions have been sent, students will need to complete an online Initial Skills Assessment (also via the bloom system, cf. link above) before 25th November. The lecture series starts with an introductory lecture on Tuesday in week 6 (5th November) from 19:00 to 21:00 in the Gandhi Suu Kyi room.
In case you have any questions on this, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Best,
Moritz
