The ECWO Erasmus Women in Academia (WiA) training addresses the crucial issues which impede career progress. We offer this training because it is important that:
- Women remain in academia—thereby reducing the loss of talent as careers develop at Erasmus University;
- Women’s academic careers develop more swiftly into (senior) leadership positions; and
- Women join to support each other around issues of gender climate and inclusive structures and practices at the University.
Key topics of the training are: leadership, effective communicating, addressing micro-inequities, leveraging your networks, and navigating the political playing field. During the training you will explore best practices, share insights, learn about the latest research, compare experiences, and discuss your ideas and challenges with each other.
Since the training is highly practical, you can put what they have learned into use immediately. Informal lunches and dinner will also provide opportunities to learn from guests from within Erasmus University academia.
Please note: This programme will only continue with sufficient participants.
