With the launch of a new digital learning portal, the Graduate Academy Leipzig is creating an innovative qualification offer for early career researchers.

The learning platform TwentyOne Skills currently has over 40 courses available and is constantly being expanded and updated. The offer includes "bestsellers" such as Presentation Skills, Science Communication, Time Management or Leadership. But also new, in-demand areas such as Agility, Design Thinking, or Mental Health are being offered.

Deep Dive courses and Nuggets

The e-learning courses are offered in two formats: “Deep Dive" courses are courses with a learning duration of 2-3 hours. "Nuggets" with a length of not more than 20 minutes on the other hand, concentrate on the specific teaching of a technique or method. After course completion, you can download a certificate.

Those who want to familiarise themselves independently and autonomously with new topics and fields of competence are well provided for with the extensive course portfolio. After course completion, you can download a certificate. Furthermore, regular live formats offer the opportunity to exchange ideas on course content, applying methods or addressing individual questions, which are then answered by experts. Another focus is on transdisciplinary and cross-locational networking within the science community.

We are offering members of the Graduate Academy 50 exclusive memberships for the duration of 3 months each starting in July and October 2023, as well as in January and in April 2024. Pre-registrations for the first memberships starting on 1 July 2023 are available now! In order to secure your membership, please register on our website. Memberships will be awarded on a first come, first-served basis.
