Origins and backgrounds of course participants

A multicultural environment with course participants from over 170 countries

The origins and backgrounds of ITC course participants have a significant influence on the educational processes. The majority of these participants are professionals in their respective fields, with prior academic training and (often) professional experience. Consequently, professional relevancy and problem orientation are important factors in designing ITC’s training courses, with the emphasis on the application of concepts and skills.

Our courses aim at providing in-depth study of a particular set of problems in developing countries and countries in transition. They attract young and mid-career professionals with an interest in development-related issues.
