SLEplus Short Term Training in Development Cooperation

The centre for Advanced Training in Rural Development (SLE) offers a number of scholarships for the short-term training programme SLEplus Berlin Training for International Development Cooperation at the Humboldt Universität zu Berlin.

The SLE wants not only reach colleagues from larger development agencies, but also colleagues and partners from smaller NGOs and foundations and therefore encourages applications within the mentioned groups.

SLEplus addresses persons from developing as well as industrialized countries. It is designed to meet the needs of professionals working in the area of development cooperation in government and non-government organizations. It is financed by DAAD with funds from the Ministry of Economic Cooperation, the German Federal Foreign Office and the Berlin Senate.

SLEplus is offering the following short-term training courses in 2011:

  • Disaster Risk Reduction in Development Cooperation and Humanitarian Assistance, 8.8.-19.8.2011
  • Conflict Management and Conflict Transformation, 22.8.-2.9.2011
  • Management of Development Projects, 5.9.-16.9.2011
  • Outcome and Impact Oriented Monitoring, 19.9.-23.9.2011

Scholarships will be available to persons from conflict areas as well as to qualified foreign alumni of German institutions of higher education and to alumni of universities who received a German sur-place-scholarship in their home country or a third country. Course language is English.

Persons who are not eligible for a scholarship may participate on a self-payment arrangement. Fee per course is €500.

Online application is open from 14th of March until 15th of May 2011.
