Virtual Staff Development Programmes
SU International, in collaboration with our global partner institutions, offers a range of virtual staff development programmes. These initiatives provide academic and professional administrative support staff (PASS) with access to diverse online courses, workshops, and training opportunities.
Whether you are looking to enhance professional skills, engage in cross-cultural collaboration, or expand your international network, these programmes offer flexible, accessible ways to grow in your role, without leaving your desk.
Below is a list of current virtual opportunities available to SU staff:
Navigating cultures in the global workplace
Institution offering programme: Northwestern University
Engage in intercultural dialogue with colleagues from Germany, South Africa, and the U.S.
In January/February 2025, Northwestern University's Office of International Relations will host an interactive 5-week virtual workshop series for staff members from University of Hamburg, Stellenbosch University, and Northwestern University.
In our global university settings, it’s more important than ever that staff have the necessary awareness, knowledge and skills to effectively work in multi-cultural environments. Five participants from each university will participate in interactive small group sessions which combine live presentations, discussions, and case studies. Participation in the workshop is free.
Dates: 30 January – 27 February 2025
