Basics of Science Communication: Available formats
Our workshops and courses are available in various formats, tailored to individual learning needs. Whether face-to-face, virtual or as a digital self-study course – each format specifically promotes the development of skills in science communication.
In-person Workshop
Direct exchange and practical application: Our face-to-face workshops offer a focused learning environment with a real break away from the daily work routine. The focus here is on direct exchange with trainers and the group. Interactive exercises and practical methods make the content tangible and firmly anchored. The intensive learning experience leaves a lasting impression. Our workshops take place either at your institution or in the NaWik course room.
Online workshop
Location-independent learning in the virtual course room: our online workshops bring participants together online at fixed training times. The units – two or three half days – can be easily integrated into everyday working life. Each training session is accompanied live by two trainers and takes place in small groups to enable intensive exchange and individual feedback.
E-learning Course
Learn when and where it suits: our e-learning courses enable flexible self-study with multimedia and interactive content – from quizzes to texts, videos to animations. Participants work through the modules at their own pace and receive targeted feedback through exemplary solutions. Self-tests allow users to check their own learning progress.
Our Trainers
Our lecturers come from the fields of research, journalism and professional science communication. What they all have in common is many years of experience in communicating with target groups beyond the academic world and a passion for passing on their knowledge and experience in our workshops and courses.
