PRACTICAL SEMINAR
Recruiting & Retaining Academic Staff at
Universities & Research Institutes
Strengthening your academic workforce through effective Human
Resources Management
Higher education institutes (HEI) and research entities are constantly competing for talent
with other institutions in the world offering excellent conditions for researchers and lecturers.
The attractiveness of universities and research institutes as employers plays an important
role in drawing and recruiting the brightest, most talented people from around the globe. To
strengthen location-based advantages of European HEI it is therefore crucial to understand
the specific challenges of human resources management (HRM) to appeal to and retain
excellent staff in the area of research, development and innovation (R&D&I).
Human Resources departments need to keep up with this development and find strategies
to present their unique features in the best possible light to compete successfully not only
against other HEI but also the private sector. Only then can they attract the brightest talents
and ensure the quality of their research and teaching.
Recruiting and retaining the right talents for your institution
However, it is equally important to ensure that academic staff fits into your organisation
and that all parties have a positive working environment. A functioning HRM system not
only works towards reaching and assessing potential employees. It also has to develop
strategies to retain the institution’s skilled academic personnel. Anticipating employees’
needs by providing support programmes or through the establishment of a Dual Career
Service is an important step towards this goal. Another approach towards retaining excellent
talents is the development of leadership perspectives, which are beneficial for both, the
institutions and their academic staff.
This practical seminar offers you the possibility to learn and build up the best strategies
to identify, recruit and retain the academic staff needed at your higher education institute.
Be best equipped with the tools to win the competition for talent.
“Alive and very interesting!”

University of Skövde, Sweden

Education, TES Global, United Kingdom
