Professional School Open Call - Call for ideas for new training topics

Date: 2024.11.25
Do you have a cool idea for a course? We can help you make it happen!

In line with the Future University concept, the former MOME Open and MOME Craft courses, as well as the paid postgraduate courses, will be brought under the MOME Professional School starting in January.

 

Our aim is to provide high-quality professional courses worthy of MOME's reputation, targeting active and motivated adults who are committed to advancing in a creative field but cannot accommodate full-time studies in their daily schedules.

 

The Professional School offers professionals at MOME the opportunity to share their expertise with a broader audience, creating greater impact and added value. It provides a platform to experiment with innovative topics that hold relevance both in the market and in academic environments. This fosters synergies between academic and market-oriented training programs, facilitating the dissemination of MOME's knowledge to a wider audience while integrating external professionals into the educational process.

 

At the launch of the Professional School, we aim to completely renew the current training portfolio. While building on the recognition of already successful courses, we also want to enable MOME’s professional community to enrich the offerings by developing new courses.

 

This call is addressed to those who, individually or as part of a team, are willing to develop a new training course and conduct it at least once by the end of the 2025/2026 academic year. If a program proves successful, it can be repeated annually or even more frequently.

 

Applicants are required to submit a brief description of their proposed curriculum using the provided template (including title, topic description, planned format, skills to be developed, target audience, equipment needs, etc.) and upload it via the designated form by January 27, 2025.

 

The Professional School working group will review submissions and provide feedback to applicants by February 20, 2025. For successful applications, we will initiate a personal consultation process to assist in the detailed development of the curriculum. Once finalized, the planned course will be announced and advertised.

 

For further information or if you have any questions, please contact Balázs Püspök (bpuspok@mome.hu) or Csaba Gosztonyi (gosztonyi.csaba@mome.hu).
