Selection and Motivation

(Note: This information applies to the employee 'mini' minor, Students click here)

Since the number of participants for the programme is limited to 15, there needs to be a selection process, which is basically the same as the one used for our students. We ask each candidate to write a motivation letter (appr. one A4) in which they explain why this trip is beneficial to their professional career and/or how it will enrich their teaching in such a way that our students can also benefit. The motivation letters will be reviewed anonymously by a Selection Commission (including other non-participating colleagues).

Please ensure that your (direct) manager agrees with your application before you apply.

The application will be reviewed by your manager and then it goes to MT for final approval.
