International Training Programme (ITP)
The participants should have some professional or research experience and possess at least a bachelor degree. Natives of a country outside the 31 scholarship countries can participate in the training but do not qualify for a scholarship.
Professors and teachers of Flemish universities and university colleges can submit a project proposal for an International Training Programme.
Objectives
VLIR-UOS aims to give young scientists and professionals the opportunity to follow a course in Flanders, in an international environment. The programme aims to exchange knowledge and skills to contribute to the local development of the home countries of the participants and to global development.
Funding
The funding of an International Training Programme includes, in addition to the scholarships for participants, a project fee for the organizing university or university college. This fee consists of bench fees per VLIr-UOS sponsored participant (€ 49 per participant per day). This allowance covers the deployment of academic and administrative staff as well as logistical expenses, communication expenses and teaching aids.
