Alumni who have an interest in teaching. The role of the trainers is
to assist the Professors to organise the course, to chair work-lunches
and to guide working groups in the afternoons during the first week
of teaching. Trainers receive pedagogical advice from the Professor
in view of developing teaching and pedagogical skills. Trainers are
also a connecting link between new and old participants thus creating
continuity between new and old CABIR Alumni. Trainers must be CABIR
Alumni and have an interest in teaching. All trainers are selected following
