NO STRIKE ON WEDNESDAY!!!!

HELLO DEAR GUESTS,

WE HAVE JUST HEARD ON THE NEWS THAT THERE WILL BE NO STRIKE ON WEDNESDAY.

SO ALL OUR WORRIES WERE UNNECESSARY.

TRAINS AND BUSES AND THALYS AND EUROSTAR WILL RUN AS NORMAL.

IF THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO COME BY TAXI: THERE ARE ALWAYS TAXIS WAITING OUTSIDE THE AIRPORT AND THE STATION AT BRUSSELS SOUTH (MIDI).


I am looking forward to meeting you on Wednesday morning at 9 am.
Agnes Dillien

We are pleased to invite lecturers from respective study fields of our partner institutes to our university college in the framework of the Erasmus teacher exchange programme. We strongly believe in the importance of the international dimension for all our students and in the networking and the exchange of knowhow and experience between lecturers.

You will teach our Bachelor/Master students about their respective subjects, so that our students will get a true internationalisation@home experience.

The programme consists of sessions, lectures or workshops of our international guests, which may be taught a number of times to different groups. Sessions are open to all students interested.  Furthermore, lecturers are asked to prepare a country presentation, focusing on general background, study- and work opportunities and practical and cultural differences. Classes can be taught in English, French or German. On our website you will find some suggestions of possible topics.

The kick off will be the opening seminar on Wednesday morning 15th February with some eminent speakers. The theme of our 8th international days is connected to the European theme of 2012: “Towards a pro-active ageing Europe", Challenges for the younger generation! We focus on how to prepare students to this new future reality.
You are invited to have your lectures in the context of our main theme, but this is not mandatory.

During the whole programme, there will be many networking possibilities with colleagues, representatives from companies and organisations we work with, and of course students! And you will get to know the cities of the Kempen region.

If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact us on international-days@khk.be

We are looking forward to seeing you soon.
