What mobility framework?
International weeks, also known as Staff Week, are training weeks dedicated to administrative staff and teachers. Their aim is to promote exchanges between colleagues from European and non-European universities. Generally focusing on a specific topic, these weeks combine cultural activities, presentations and workshops. They promote the exchange of working methods and best practices, as well as the discovery of organisations, enabling staff to benefit from a week of training that enriches their organisational and practical knowledge and skills.
Application procedure:
UBM publishes its Staff Week on the IMOTION website every year. All procedures and formalities are listed there. The UBM International Staff Week takes place in June each year.
