Description
Extra-Curricular activities
In addition to the regular certification lectures and workshops, ISPD will organise several extracurricular activities:
– Conferences and guest lectures on a broad range of topics related protocol, diplomacy and cross cultural awareness throughout the year.
– ISPD offers to its students visits to the European Institutions, official VIP facilities where protocol and diplomacy take place.
Methodology
At ISPD we believe that learning comes from a mixture of practical and theoretical knowledge, both as taught by lecturers and as practiced by participants. Thus, throughout this course, we aim to offer both practical and theoretical knowledge, using real life examples and simulations that not only help each participant to understand the material that is taught, but to give them an opportunity to learn by making mistakes in workshops and through case study before they have to use this knowledge in their professional lives.
Workshops are offered to offer participants practice in organising different types of official events and in order that they learn by practice. These would include workshops on how to manage difficult VIPs, how to organise visits, conferences, etc., and how to manage a team and ensure that everything happens on time in the appropriate manner.
In order to be certified, each participant must not only attend the lectures and workshops given, but they must complete a series of exercises designed to assess whether they have studied and learnt that which they have seen in their lectures.
University degree
The MA programme has been running in Spain for the last twelve years, and in Belgium since 2008 in cooperation with Spanish universities. At present we work with Universidad Camilo José Cela, based in Madrid, which offers a variety of courses in a wide range of academic subjects.
We work in partnership with the university in order to adapt their curriculum to an international context with world renowned experts. Students will be awarded a diploma from The International School of Protocol & Diplomacy and by Universidad Camilo José Cela once they complete satisfactorily their chosen programme in our Brussels facilities.
