What's a Staff Training Week?

These weeks span over 5 days and include workshops, talks, and other educational and cultural activities specifically aimed at our international partners.

The Central International Relations Office, along with some faculties and schools at UGR, as well as university services such as Libraries, Network and Computing Service, and the Center for Cooperation and Support for Development Initiatives (CICODE), organize their own training weeks.

Do you need some information to prepare your stay in the city?

Bear in mind that the vist to the Alhambra is not included in the programme. If you would like to visit the monument, we recommend to check the visitor’s guidelines for information on how to get a ticket.

For inquiries, please contact us at @email.

We're excited to share that in spring 2027 during the months of March, April, May, and possibly June, we’ll be hosting several Staff Training Weeks on engaging topics such as Capacity Building Projects, International Relations, Interculturality in academia, Libraries, IT, and more. We’ll be posting them progressively as dates and programs are finalized. In the meantime, we're unable to issue acceptance letters or mobility agreements—but we look forward to sharing more soon!
