REGISTRATION
- Express interest by filling out and following the directions on this online form. Group interaction is key, so only 12 places are available.
- If we have too many applicants a short intake will be done over the phone/Skype beforehand.
- Participation is free. International House Leuven offers the trainers, course material and organisation but in return we ask commitment and active participation. Past experience has forced us however to instate a formal no-show policy. A no-show fee of 40 € will apply for every half-day session missed without valid reason (own illness or of a family member; with doctor’s certificate).
- This event is made possible by the partner organisation International House Leuven, they take care of the organisation and registration of data/interested participants.
the location of the career program is International House Leuven, Tiensevest , 3000 Leuven (nearby the train station “Leuven”)
