Dear colleagues,
We are glad to invite you to take part in the Staff Training Week that will be held at Ghent University

The aim of this Staff Training Week is to welcome both teaching and non-teaching staff from our
partner institutions and share experiences with regard to the following theme: “Quality Assurance in
Higher Education: Best Practices, Challenges and Opportunities”.
Our proposed program consists out of different workshops and visits to the departments according
to the participants’ areas of interest.
A preliminary agenda has been devised; a more specific and detailed programme will be sent in
