Description

Lecturers play a key role in internationalisation. They design education and put internationalisation into practice - in direct contact with their students and in close connection with the (local, regional and international) partners and work field.

Nuffic, together with the research group Global Learning (The Hague University of Applied Sciences) and five VET schools (Alfa-college, ROC van Twente, ROC Mondriaan, Summa College and ROC van Amsterdam en Flevoland), researched which teacher roles and competencies are important in the internationalisation of mbo.

We will present our findings on March 15. During the symposium 'Internationalisation in Practice', vocational education schools and universities of applied sciences will share how they support lecturers in the different roles they play within internationalisation. Moreover, all participants are invited to explore opportunities to strengthen professional learning and development for internationalisation, focusing on the potential role of collaboration between institutions and stakeholders in different regions.

The symposium is aimed at everyone in vocational education and universities of applied sciences who is involved in teacher professionalisation for internationalisation:

  • Teachers
  • HR employees
  • International coordinators
  • Training managers
  • Educational advisors
  • Researchers
