We are pleased to announce a two-day training session on 22 - 23 September in Helsinki to provide information and advice on how to make the most of HEInnovate.
About the workshop
The workshop aims to provide information, tools and techniques to maximise the use of HEInnovate. The training session will help participants to:
- Get (more) familiar with and deepen understanding of the HEInnovate tool and useful supporting materials, such as action cards;
- Understand the strategic potential of HEInnovate and develop a strategic view of the implementation of the self-assessment results;
- Use the HEInnovate tool and resources at their own institution, focusing on strategic goals and leadership;
- Exchange and learn from peers: compare experiences and good/bad practices
- Prepare to organise workshops at own institution and further promote the HEInnovate tool.
The training sessions will also offer the possibility of international networking with like-minded people, who are interested in advancing their institution's innovative and entrepreneurial nature.
