Description:

Like it or not, the world works on personal connections and you need to be able to form those connections easily. This workshop will provide you with the tools to effectively make new connections to help you find collaboration partners, information and get jobs. This is not about selling yourself. It is about forming a useful network.
This workshop will provide you with easy networking techniques and will teach you open, honest and unobtrusive methods to help you make the best use of opportunities like conferences, symposia and careers fairs.

* Creditability within the kick-off seminar

For reasons of respect and fairness towards all participants and the workshop leaders, participants who miss more than 10% of the workshop are considered not to be present. You will therefore not receive a certificate and you will not be able to use the workshop in question to unlock funds or acquire further qualifications.

Before you register, please confirm with your supervisor/employer that you are free to participate in the course on that date.
