From the 14th to 27th Feburary, the Gandia International Centre (CIG-UV) will host 50 students from 23 countries, for the classroom phase of the Ninth edition of the Winter School “Bernhard Wilpert”. The Winter School is a training organized for the Master Erasmus +: Erasmus Mundus in Work, Organizations and Personnel Psychology (https://www.uv.es/erasmuswop/), taught in the consortium of five European universities (Barcelona, Bologna, Coimbra, Paris-Decartes and Valencia). A dedicated team of professors from the School of Psychology and the research institute of the University of Valencia – IDOCAL (http://www.uv.es/idocal/) coordinates the Winter School.
This year besides hosting students from the five WOP-P Consortium universities, and two collaborating Universities (University of Guelph (Canada) and University of Brasilia (Brazil), we also have participants from various American Universities such as the University of Baltimore, University of Colorado and Florida Institute of Technology.
This intensive joint learning takes place in three stages: First, Virtual Teamworking where students work in teams of 4-5 international members virtually to deliver assignments. Second, Intensive Residential Phase where participants congregate at Gandia International Centre for series of workshops and lectures. Lastly, Intergration where participants work independently with the support of the online platform (virtual classroom) of the University of Valencia.
The training team comprised of leading researchers, academians and practitioners in the field of Work, Organization and Personnel Psychology. They include Prof. Rob Briner (University of Bath, UK) (supported by a grant from Banco Santander BS), Dirk Steiner (University of Nice, France), Eric Andriessen (University of Delft, The Netherlands) (supported by a grant from Banco Santander BS), Fred Zijlstra (Mastrich University, The Netherlands), Donald Truxillo (Portland University, USA) and Ricardo Vargas (CEO of Consultin House, Portugal), Vicente González Romà (University of Valencia, Spain), Salvatore Zappalà (University of Bologna, Italy).
