| Centre for Academic Teaching and Learning 2022: this is what the anniversary year looked like
|
| Last year was a year of celebration for the Centre for Academic Teaching and Learning (CAT): the CAT celebrated its fifth anniversary! One of the ways we celebrated this was with the well-attended symposium 'All Inclusive', which we organised in collaboration with the UU programme Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI). Teacher community TAUU also had something to celebrate, as it celebrated its 10th anniversary. And so there were more highlights last year. Read more in the CAT Annual Report 2022.

| Two-day workshop on recognition and rewards for UU managers
|
| UU is offering a two-day workshop in order to familiarise all UU managers with the recognition and reward system. This will allow us to examine exactly what you need, as a manager, in order to work with the recognition and reward system. You will develop your own plan of action. You will work from why you want to get started towards what do you want to do and eventually translate this into a personal plan: how are you going to tackle it. The two-day workshop will be held on 23/24 May and 7/8 June.

| Register for the webinar: Challenges in developing in-company training courses!
|
| Designing Continuing Education in consultation with a specific client offers all kinds of advantages: you are sure to have participants and you can make the content appropriate for the target group. But there are also challenges when working for an external client. How do you arrive at content and design of in-company training courses in consultation with the client? How do you weigh client wishes against the wishes of participants and your professional opinion? In the webinar ‘Challenges in developing in-company training courses’, we discuss the process from first contact to product. The webinar will take place online on 15 June, from 10:00-11:00 o’clock.
