The series of trainings “University of the Future: Secrets of Successful Management in Education” has been completed, running from October to November and bringing together 90 participants in 15 teams from faculties and structural divisions of Vasyl Stefanyk Carpathian National University.
The training consisted of four sessions that covered key aspects of modern academic management: the role of the university in the context of social transformations; strategising in uncertainty; personnel management and team development; and internal and external communication.
The final stage of the program was the presentation of team projects, during which participants presented their developed management ideas and proposals for developing their units.
The practical result of the training was the launch of internal grant support.
Based on the final presentations, the winning team was selected, and the first internal grant of UAH 10,000 was awarded to implement the project of the Educational and Scientific Law Institute.
The project’s implementation aims to improve educational, scientific, and innovative activities, develop the academic community, enhance the quality of teaching, and attract new ideas.
The following people were involved in conducting the training: Valentyna Yakubiv, Iryna Pyatnychuk, Vitaliy Shkromyda, Eduard Lapkovsky, Natalia Belova, Igor Hurak, Tetyana Kornienko, Nelya Dolynko, Tetyana Hulyak, Iryna Solonets and Tetyana Hrynyshak.
The series of trainings was implemented based on the experience of Carpathian University teams participating in the Academic Managers Professional Development Program – a unique initiative of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, which is implemented by the British Council within the framework of a joint project of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine and the World Bank “Improving Higher Education in Ukraine for Results.”
The training program became an essential step in developing the university’s management potential, creating a common space for professional dialogue, exchange of experience, and the formation of practical solutions aimed at the strategic development of the institution.
