As a partner of MENDELU within the European University Alliance HEROES, the University College of Northern Denmark (UCN) invites you to three days of innovation, networking, and inspiration in education, where educators, experts, and innovators from around the world will come together to explore the future of education through innovation.
The theme of Staff Week is “Exploring Innovation in Education.” You will have the opportunity to discover new perspectives and gain practical tools for shaping the learning environments of the future.

You can use your Erasmus+ staff mobility to participate in the programme. If you would like to attend, please get in touch with the staff mobility coordinator, Lenka Vivas.

WHERE: Aalborg, Denmark

WHEN: May 5 – 7, 2026

Staff Week will have two dynamic tracks:
