SKAT and sba to Run E-Learning Course in Network Management
2009-07-25
Networks create a number of benefits for their members and stakeholders, and contribute to the overall mission of sustainable development. By networking, organisations and individuals have the opportunity to test out new ideas and innovative solutions and to develop synergies. Networks are catalysts for establishing partnerships and for acquiring up to date information and know-how. Networks achieve good results if they are committed to professional management.
Effective network management implies careful facilitation to ensure effective and efficient communication flows between members who often have different cultural and language backgrounds. Effective network management also involves knowing how to effectively plan activities with colleagues that are geographically dispersed, and how to set up the governance structures of a complex system.
SKAT and sba have designed an E-learning Network Management Course, for formal networks, to provide network practitioners with the tools and skills to respond to such challenges. The course is based on conceptual and methodological understanding of network management. Different theoretical and practical e-learning tools will be used to achieve this goal.
As highlighted by a former course participant: “The course methods are adjusted to suit different participants located in different places and time zones. The E-learning platform allowed us to meet with new peers from other countries and exchange valuable information and experience”.
The course, which is designed for a group of approximately 25 participants, will start on September 14 2009 and last until the 20 of November 2009. A selection process will take place and therefore candidates are requested to fill out and submit a registration form along with an up to date CV and a letter explaining their motivation for wishing to complete the course by 31 of July 2009.
