Training Programmes and Courses

This section predominantly provides weblinks to information regarding Training Programmes and Courses which are not necessarly restricted to science and ethics. Although specific courses are available in this field there are hardly respective databases in existence. Information about study courses and training opportunities is often collected on the website of the respective provider, but it seldom is available for a broader public. ETHICSWEB strives to establish a database that willl provide easy access to specific courses providing educational opportunities in the field of science and ethics.

Consequently most offers collected here have a broader scope and are concerned with exchange opportunities in general. More specific databases especially collecting programmes and courses concerned with the field of science and ethics have been included as they have been identified by ETHICSWEB.

Specific Training and Teaching materials which can be deployed in actual courses are collected in the section Training Materials and can also be found with the ETHICSWEB literature search.
