Within the framework of the Erasmus+ RE-DIRECTION project, a large-scale professional training programme has been launched for academic and administrative staff of the partner universities. The training aims to strengthen the institutional capacities of higher education institutions in Ukraine and Georgia by integrating digitalisation, inclusivity, and sustainable development into teaching and management practices.

The training programme was designed by the project’s international expert team and includes a series of online modules covering the following key areas: 

• modern digital teaching tools; 

• approaches to building an inclusive learning environment; 

• integration of eco-thinking and sustainability principles into curricula; 

• enhancement of internal quality assurance processes. 

Participants receive access to specially developed learning materials, practical case studies, and video lectures that support the modernisation of university courses and the advancement of pedagogical competences.

                               

Dnipro University of Technology actively participates in all stages of the training. University representatives are involved in each thematic module, exchange experience with European and Caucasus partners, and work on adapting the acquired practices for further curriculum updates in cooperation with academic departments and the student community. 

The launch of the staff training programme marks an important stage in the RE-DIRECTION project, as the development of professional competences ensures the sustainable implementation of digital, inclusive, and environmentally oriented innovations in the higher education sector. 

The next steps include completing the training cycle, assessing the outcomes, and scaling the best practices across partner universities in Georgia and Ukraine.
