At GÉANT |
believe it is crucial |
to engage |
, foster |
and develop future IT professionals. This sentiment holds true now, more than ever, as the sector undergoes a period of considerable growth |
. |
As we are committed to |
the up-skilling of Europe’s future IT workforce, |
we have set up the GÉANT Future Talent Programme. |
Future Talent Programme is a |
gateway to young professionals to meet the European and global networking community. The Programme offers young professionals an opportunity to grow and develop their skills through free webinar series, internships or coaching. Furthermore, it rewards the learning by offering free admission to international, prestigious events to those, whose work was recognised by an independent panel. GÉANT learning and Development GLAD) teams up with GÉANT project partners to reach out and mentor young talented professionals to participate in one of our initiatives. Since the start in 2017 the Future Talent Programme had participation from 22 NREN, featuring 44 bright and young professionals. The programme is funded by the GÉANT Project. We invite you to join. |

Who can participate in the FTP programmes? Any young candidate nominated by a GÉANT Project NREN partner registered at a university or college in a GÉANT partner country. How many candidates can NRENs nominate for the programmes? What kind of candidates should you look for? What do you need to send to Future Talent Programme to nominate a candidate? What will be your role as a host and mentor? Your role as a mentor is to engage with your candidate on a regular basis, provide encouragement and advice during the programme and attend related events. If your candidate is selected to speak at TNC, we encourage you to support him or her at the conference. Travel cost for mentors can be funded. We ask the hosting NREN to support the candidate's travel arrangements. Candidates' travel and accommodation is funded by the programme and can be reclaimed from GLAD in GN4.3 following the normal GÉANT project claimant rules and procedures. Have a different question?

What can FTP do for students?
Students will be able to develop their professional skills working, connecting and interacting with the GÉANT community and other recipients across Europe and as such develop employability skills and strengthen their CVs.
What can FTP do for NRENs?
Our approach enables NRENs to play a major role in developing young people’s skills and inspire their fresh thinking and great ideas. By participating in the Future Talent Programme, NRENs can strengthen the relation with their universities and other educational institutions, motivate high quality talents and get them excited about their research and education networking.
Within the Future Talent Programme, Learning and Development offers two initiatives. Both are targeting TNC18, an international conference for global networking professionals, and both are made possible through a collaboration between GÉANT L&D, GÉANT project partners, young professionals and TNC Programme Committee.
Initiative 1: Lightning Talk Challenge - Get on Stage!
Initiative 2: Poster Pursuit - Clarify your message! Visualise the meaning!
