International Management Teachers Academy (IMTA), Bled 2009

CEEMAN’s IMTA – International Management Teachers Academy provides a unique opportunity for young faculty to improve their teaching skills, methods, and materials, including teaching with cases, case writing, course design, and curricula development. It also helps to improve competences and skills related to specific managerial disciplines, and provides inputs related to other aspects of a faculty member’s professional life, such as consulting, institution development and administration, and social responsibility. The exchange of ideas and experiences with colleagues from other countries proves to be a valuable source of learning, and an effective instrument for the establishment of professional contacts and networks.
