Personal Development
While studying you have time to broaden your horizon and discover your personal strengths, interests and values. We offer a broad range of trainings and workshops to help you to develop themselves outside of academia and discover and enhance your talents.
Career Development
Preparing and orientating oneself on the labour market is very important, but might be difficult. Student Career Services offers training, events and other services to help students prepare for their future job. Services include (online) CV and LinkedIn support, as well as career coaching and career events.
Study skills
Everyone can learn how to study. Studying is a skill that can be learned and trained. Whether you are new to university, haven’t studied for a while, or are halfway through your degree, sometimes you might need some extra help to improve the skills that are essential to your academic performance. Student Training & Support offers trainings courses and advice to help students develop the necessary skills to achieve their academic goals.
Communication
Communication is of major importance in everyday life. Whether students are looking to learn a new language, improve academic literacy skills, improve presentation skills or want to overcome a fear of public speaking, WUR and partners offer a wide range of trainings to develop and enhance language and literacy skills.
Between cultures
Adjusting to a new culture may be difficult. To promote the connection between all students at WUR, we offer workshops and training courses.
Well-being
WUR assigns great value to the mental and physical well-being of its students. Therefore, STS offers a variety of workshops, trainings, events and other facilities to stimulate and enhance student well-being, health and happiness.
Training and Support Overview
Student Training & Support aims to be a platform for extracurricular training & workshops. We focus on six themes: Study Skills, Personal Development, Wellbeing, Communication, Career Development & Between Cultures. Here you find an overview of the training courses, workshops and other support that are on offer.
Students Support Students
Wouldn’t it be nice to meet up informally with fellow students who recognise the issues you run into while studying at WUR? Whether it’s neurodiversity, study & parenthood, mental problems, or a disability; it helps to know you are not alone and even more if you can talk about it with peers who listen, understand and inspire.
The workshops & training are exclusively accessible for students at Wageningen University & Research.
Student Training & Support is financed by the Quality Funding
