UNESCO are pleased to announce that applications are now open for the 2019-2020 IIEP-UNESCO training programmes.
Designed to bolster the individual capacities of educational planners and managers, our programmes contribute to the institutional capacity that ministries of education require to carry out education sector analyses and plans that reflect both national priorities and their commitments to Sustainable Development Goal 4.
All of the programmes described below are offered in English and French with simultaneous translation during the face-to-face courses. Participants can also pursue our courses in a modularized way, meaning that they can, for example take the Education Sector Planning course first, and complete the ATP later.
2019 SPECIALIZED COURSES PROGRAMME (SCP)
From April to May 2019, IIEP will offer six two-week courses at IIEP in Paris, France. Each of the courses cover a specific area, such as teacher management and quantitative methods for monitoring and evaluating the quality of education. Participants must successfully complete three of these short courses if they are studying for the ATP, but these courses are also open to others who want to enhance their skills in a particular thematic area. Development partner staff often join Ministry staff on these short courses.
Key features of the SCP:
  • Intensive courses that last two-weeks,
  • Focus is on a specialized topic in education sector analysis or management,
  • Stimulating learning activities, including group work and practical exercises,
  • Successful course completion is recognised as part of the ATP.
THE 2019-2020 EDUCATION SECTOR PLANNING (ESP) COURSE
This course combines 12 weeks of online learning and a 13-week residential training phase at IIEP. Providing participants with the fundamentals of educational planning, it covers areas such as an education sector analysis/diagnosis, plan preparation, and the implementation and monitoring of an education sector plan. The course begins in September 2019 with an online phase in-country and finishes in March 2020 in Paris, France. The ESP can count towards completion of the ATP one-year programme in educational planning and management.
Key features of the ESP:
  • 12 weeks online and 13 weeks at IIEP in Paris,
  • Covers main areas of planning from sector analysis/diagnosis, plan preparation, to monitoring and evaluation,
  • Group and individual course work and field visits in France and in a neighbouring country,
  • IIEP International Certificate of Advanced Studies in Education Sector Planning given upon successful completion.
THE 2019-2020 ADVANCED TRAINING PROGRAMME
This year will mark the 55th session of the Advanced Training Programme, the flagship one-year programme offered by IIEP-UNESCO in educational planning and management. This programme includes the ESP course and the SCP, as well as a tutored project that participants complete in their home countries. An intensive and practice-oriented course, the ATP prepares its graduates to enhance their performance and future careers as education planners and managers.
Key features of the ATP:
  • Three months online learning, followed by six months in Paris and a project completed in the participant’s country of residence to ensure the relevance of the course to the participants and their organisations,
  • Develops practical and theoretical skills in educational planning and management, as well as leadership skills,
  • Covers all facets of educational planning and management, from education policy analysis to monitoring and evaluation,
  • Includes a study visit in France and a neighbouring country to learn about their education systems,
  • IIEP Master’s equivalent level certificate awarded upon successful completion.
Eligibility Criteria: Participants at IIEP come from all parts of the world (however, they must be proficient in either English or French). Here are some of the professional backgrounds of previous participants:
  • Educational planners and managers involved in policy formulation and implementation;
  • Other officials from education ministries;
  • Professionals from other governmental bodies in charge of education matters;
  • Education specialists who wish to strengthen their knowledge and expertise in specific areas;
  • Education officers involved in analysis, design, planning, implementation, and evaluation of education policies and programmes at different levels of government;

  • Professionals developing or managing educational programmes and projects in other types of organizations, including development partners and NGOs;
  • Holders of a first degree, or equivalent qualification.
Number of Awards: Not specified
Value of Award: UNESCO member states may submit a request for funding from the UNESCO participation programme through the UNESCO National Commission. The procedure and schedule for the submission of funding requests are available at the UNESCO web site.
Duration of Programme: Programmes vary in length from our two-week specialized courses to the Master’s level equivalent Advanced Training Programme (ATP), which takes one year to complete, including six month’s residential training in Paris.
Method of Application: Interested applicants must apply online. For a complete application, applicants must upload the following documents:
  • The Authorization of Participation form, duly completed and signed/stamped by your employer and, if possible, your UNESCO National Commission representative. (You can download the form from the ‘Practical Information’ section of the application form.)

7 Steps On How to Study in Germany for Free Tuition

You can study for free for both undergraduate and graduate degrees at public universities in Germany. This is true for international students worldwide.
The only fees required are called “administration fees”, that cost around 100 – 200Euro/year. This fees are dedicated to student services, covering costs for bus tickets to the university, student cafeteria and more.
If you want to study for free in Germany, we have simplified the steps you need to take, see below:
1. Choose a University
You can’t study in Germany for free if you don’t have a destination. The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) hasa database of almost 17,000 programs available to search from, including 88 programs in English.
  • You should also consider the latest rankings of the top universities in Germany while making your decision, or check the latest QS World University Rankings by Subject to find the top German institutions in your field.
  • When choosing a university and a course you should also make sure the course content suits you.
  • Check the information provided on the official websites of universities you’reconsidering, and get in touch to request more detail if needed.
2. Sort out your finance
In order to fulfill student visa requirements, you will need to show proof that you have, or have access to,around €7,908 per year (US$8,722) or €659 (US$727) per month to cover your living costs, although you may find you need more, depending on your lifestyle and spending habits (the average student spends€800/US$877 a month). If you’re concerned costs, there are scholarships available to support students studying in Germany at various study levels including undergraduate level, despite the tuition itself being free.
3. Start Applying
For most subjects, you can apply directly to the international office of the university. Alternatively, you can use the website www.uni-assist.de, a centralized admissions portal for international students, run by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), although not all universities use this. You may wish to apply for several universities separately to increase your chances of beingadmitted.
Its recommended to submit applications at least six weeks before the deadline, to ensure time for corrections or additions if any information is missing. You should expect to receive a formal acceptance or rejection approximately one totwo months after the deadline has passed.
The specific documents required and application process will be set by each institution, but you will typically be asked to submit:
  • A certified copy of your high-school diploma or previous degrees, and any other relevant qualifications in the original language
  • A translated overview of your course modules and grades
  • A passport photo
  • A copy of your passport (personal information and photo ID page)
  • Proofof language proficiency (a test certificate or equivalent)
Make sure you provide all the documentation requested and check that you’ve filled out all your information correctly before submitting your application. An application fee may be charged.
4. Get a German student visa 
The requirements for obtaining a student visa for Germany depend on your country of origin. You can find an overview of the countries for which a student visa is or isn’t required on the Foreign FederalOffice’s website.
5. Find accommodation 
MostGerman universities do not offer accommodation to enrolling students. Rent is likely to be your biggest monthly expense, and this will vary depending on which part of the country you live in, so sorting out your accommodation early is imperative. When looking for accommodation in Germany, you should consider student residences, shared accommodation or an apartment. An unshared apartment is the most expensive choice, and this will generally cost in the region of €350-400 (US$386-441) a month. Shared accommodation is the most popular form of accommodation and would be cheaper at around €280 (US$309) a month, while student residences are cheaper yet again at around €240 (US$265) a month. Hostels are cheap alternatives if house hunting is proving difficult.
6. Enroll 
Enrolment is the turning point, it is when your status changes from Applicant to Student. Without enrollment, you can’t start your course and use university facilities such as the library. You will also need to re-register before the start of every semester. This usually costs between €150 and €250 (US$165-275), depending on the university. Depending on the university, you may need to enroll in person or simply email or post the necessary documents before a certain deadline.
7. Time to settle in 
Congratulations! you should now be all set to begin your studies in Germany. Don’t forget to pack all the essentials, as well as arrange a few more important affairs.
  • If you haven’t already, once you’ve found accommodation you must register with thelocal registration office of your city. Once registered, you’ll receive adocument confirming your registration at that address, which you can then usefor the next step…
  • Get a student bank account. Most banks offer these for free, and it will make managing your regular payments (such as accommodation) much easier. You should open this account as soon as possible and ensure you have enough money in the meantime.
  • If you’d like to find a part-time job while you study, you can do so if you are a full-time EU or EEA student, with no restrictions on where or when you can work. If you are a full-time student from outside of the EU, you will be limited to working up to 90 days full time or 180 days part-time per year. Upon gaining paid work in Germany you should contact the German employment office to learn about the legal conditions.
