How we do it

We have developed a career management skills development program grounded in the European Career Management Skills (CMS) Framework.

The program is built around three key areas that support students along a structured and informed journey: developing full awareness of their professional profile (skills, experience, and potential), understanding the professional landscape, and implementing a career plan aligned with their career objectives.

Workshop & labs

To strengthen core career management skills, we offer more than 20 workshops and a range of experiential labs each year, focused on key topics such as Building a Purposeful Career, Job Search Strategies, Personal Branding Canvas, Networking for Professional Success, and Managing Emotions in Careers.
Each activity is designed to provide practical tools and valuable insights, enabling students to navigate organizations and the job market with greater awareness. A progressive skills development journey that accompanies students throughout the entire Master program.
