News : Michael Kretschmer visits the DIU Writing Academy

In June, we welcomed Saxony's Minister President Michael Kretschmer to the TUDAG education campus. The Writing Academy has been successfully teaching adults with a low literacy level to read and write for twelve years now.

The group of par­ti­ci­pants had been loo­king for­ward to this appoint­ment for a long time and took the oppor­tu­nity to ask the Minis­ter Pre­si­dent their ques­ti­ons in per­son – about his favo­rite Saxon dish, favo­rite place and favo­rite book, for exam­ple. In addi­tion, the par­ti­ci­pants pre­sen­ted him with their self-crea­ted suc­cess port­fo­lio of excur­si­ons and pro­jects, which they record in text and pictures.

In addi­tion, DIU Mana­ging Direc­tor Dr. Merle Emre and TUDAG Board Spo­kes­man Prof. Dr. Jac­ques Roh­ayem spoke with Michael Kret­schmer about topics such as aca­de­mic trai­ning, know­ledge trans­fer and the recruit­ment of spe­cia­lists. The aim of the exch­ange was to sound out joint initia­ti­ves, iden­tify new syn­ergy oppor­tu­ni­ties and make even bet­ter use of the great poten­tial of the edu­ca­tio­nal land­scape in Sax­ony in the future.
