Deadline: 14-Apr-23
Nuffic has launched a call for applications for the Orange Knowledge Programme Tailor-Made Training Plus to improve the overall functioning of an organisation sustainably by training a selected group of staff.
Tailor-Made Training Plus contributes to knowledge and skills development of staff, by specifically targeting their capacity needs.
