Summer Programs 2021

Les Roches planning for the year ahead includes re-establishing their portfolio of Summer Programs, which were badly missed by both faculty and our young participants this year. Find out more about Summer programs for 2021 at Glion or Les Roches 

All programs are fortunately still being taught in a face-to-face environment. But for those that have not made it to campus yet or would need to quarantine they have developed a blended learning option. The Glion Connect & Les Roches Connect programs are a state-of-the-art approach to ‘virtual’ study. Les Roches mixes live online tutorials and demonstrations, videos, one-to-one coaching and mentoring, plus interactive games and challenges & even extra-curricular activities!

“Abitur – und dann?” – Eine Tagung

Posted on by cyprian_zander

Unser Zeitgefühl lautet: Too much information. Auch mit dem Abitur nehmen die Informationen zu. Eine wichtige Entscheidung steht an: die Studien- und Berufswahl. Man fragt sich: Was will ich machen? Was gibt mir Sinn? Und wie orientiere ich mich bei all den Möglichkeiten? Eingebettet sind diese Überlegungen in die Frage, wie die Zukunft der Arbeit aussieht. Gesellschaftliche Trends sind globales und mobiles Arbeiten. Neue Technologien und digitale Vernetzungen eröffnen neue Arbeitsfelder. Die Idee der Work-Life-Balance und der Wunsch, individuelle Bedürfnisse nach Sicherheit als auch nach Freiheit und Flexibilität zu vereinen, machen Zukunftsfragen noch komplexer.

Die Tagung „Abitur – und dann?“ bietet einen Ort der Ruhe zum Nachdenken mit einem Team von Fachleuten: Studienberaterinnen und -berater der Arbeitsagenturen, von Hochschulen und Universitäten, Studierende aus zehn Fachrichtungen und Referierende aus Wissenschaft und Berufspraxis, u.a. mit diesen Keynotes:

„Traumberuf – Die Psychologie der Entscheidungsfindung“, Dipl.-Psych. Lena Schiestel, Podcasterin im Psychologie-Podcast „Die Lösung“ des Bayerischen Rundfunks

„Werde Mitgestalter. Warum die Gesellschaft mündige und fordernde Menschen in allen Berufen braucht“, Lara Fritzsche, stellv. Chefredakteurin des Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazins

„Digital, vernetzt und global in der Wissenschaft arbeiten. Was bedeutet das für eine wertvolle Zukunft?“, Cindy-Ricarda Roberts, Philosophin, Zentrum für Ethik der Medien und der Digitalen Gesellschaft

Wir laden herzlich zur Tagung in die Evangelische Akademie Tutzing am Starnberger See ein.
