Generelly, any member of the academic faculty is eligible to be invited to attend a CPDA event. This shall also include PhD candidates as long as they are full-time members of the faculty, and e.g., are involved in teaching or other modes of delivery of the study program. 

Besides the general eligibility, all CPDA events are by invitation only events.

LEARN Logistics collaborates with all supported unviersities to jointly pre-determine relevant CPDA topics, select highly-qualified lecturers, identifiy delivery venues, and short-list suitable faculty members to inivte for participation – depending on their qualification and needs. Academics from the below listed universities are encouraged to enagege with their LEARN Logistics focal contact point within the unviersity to make suggestions and pro-actively shape the CPDA delivery.

Academics who are NOT a member of the listed universities are currently not eligible to register for the CPDA events organized by LEARN Logistics. Unfortunately, LEARN Logistics can currently offer the participation in CPDA events only to the listed universities, but we work hard to provide offers for additional unversities and academics in the near future. You may review the list of eligible universities regualarely.
