Life-long learning at FIR: executive courses for the public, graduates, students and employees
The Faculty of International Relations develops education beyond the standard study programmes.
The Executive Academy offers specialised executive courses to support the development of professional skills and knowledge in key areas of professional focus. Studies by reputable institutions conclude that different numbers and shares of jobs will change in the coming years and that executives will be forced to adapt to the changes or seek new opportunities. However, the common conclusion is that labour market trends clearly point to the need for upskilling and reskilling, i.e. increasing and broadening professional competencies.
Led by experts with practical experience in their fields, EA courses develop up-to-date knowledge and skills. They offer solutions for professionals and university graduates interested in reflecting the dynamics of the working environment and strengthening their employability in the labour market. The selection includes the following topics:
- Understanding the defence industry from a business perspective
- Corporate Compliance
- Sustainability of value chains
- Practical use of cryptocurrencies
- Effective preparation for a career in the EU institutions
- Financing sustainable investments
- Sustainable destination management
