Graz, Austria<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From May 13th to May 17th 2024, FH JOANNEUM hosted its first International Staff Week in the framework of EU4DUAL. The topic of the week was \u201cFuture of Work\u201d, which is also one of EU4DUAL\u2019s three Grand Challenges. They welcomed 21 participants from 11 countries to Austria and enjoyed five days of workshops, company visit and cultural activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Staff Week started off at FH JOANNEUM, with welcoming speeches and a keynote<\/strong> speech held by Nava Shaked<\/strong> from Holon Institute of Technology<\/a> on the topic of Artificial Intelligence. The participants were then given a tour of the FH JOANNEUM campus and spent the afternoon getting to know each other. The participants come from various backgrounds, but they all have a connection to the Budu\u0107nost rada<\/strong> in their jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday, they visited the FH JOANNEUM campus in Kapfenberg<\/strong> and learned about the dual study model at FH JOANNEUM and were shown around the Smart Production Lab. In the afternoon, it was time for the first company visit<\/strong> of the week at the G\u00f6sser Brewery in Leoben<\/a>, where FH JOANNEUM graduates showed them the production facilities on site. Of course, no brewery visit would be complete without a beer tasting, and G\u00f6sser\u2019s wide variety of beers made the tasting very interesting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second company visit<\/strong> to Andritz<\/a> was the main part of Wednesday morning. They received an extensive tour of the facilities as well as a presentation of Andritz\u2019s main areas of work. In the afternoon, Arrate Alonso<\/strong> from Sveu\u010dili\u0161te Mondragon<\/a> held a workshop on Digital Transformation in Europe. Manuel Grassler<\/a> and Georg Wagner<\/a> from FH JOANNEUM<\/strong> introduced the group to LEGO\u00ae Serious Play\u00ae<\/strong> in their workshop \u201cShaping the Future of Work\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sain Lopez<\/strong> from Mondragon University spoke about Entrepreneurial Universities in her workshop<\/strong> on Thursday morning, while Katja Stamer and Gerhard Lechner from Duale Hochschule Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg<\/a> ended the workshop series with their workshop<\/strong> on Digitalization Along the Value Chain. The final company visit<\/strong> of the week took place on Thursday afternoon with a visit to the Zotter chocolate factory<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Friday morning, the participants reflected<\/strong> on the experiences of the week and discussed<\/strong> further possibilities for cooperation. The participants agreed that the EU4DUAL Staff Week will have a significant impact on their work, as many were inspired to start new cooperations, to establish new formats and activities within their university and to think differently about the term “Future of Work”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
