  • Helsinki Summer School Experience

    During August 2011 Desiree Daniels attended the Helsinki Summer School; here is her report:

    Leading up to the school:    

    I am completing my MPhil in Management Coaching, and while a student at SU I was eligible to apply for the exchange programme.  I thought this would be a great opportunity to extend my experience as a student as this may be my last chance to qualify.  After considering various exchange programmes offered by SU, I opted to do the course on Inter-organisational Relations offered at the Helsinki Summer School (HSS) as this was a keen interest of mine.  The partnership arrangement is that fees and accommodation costs are covered.  In addition to this, I was very fortunate to qualify for a travel bursary.  So the only expenses I had was my food and entertainment.  This sounded too good to be true as without this scholarship I would not have been able to pursue this route.
