The Polaris Programme invites ASC managers who want to develop their professional competencies to attend training and exchange of experience within the ASC's Management Platform. ASC leaders will receive practical, skill-based training in change management, team-building, time management, and personal effectiveness. Participants will also learn about tools and technologies to enhance ASC operations and service quality. Additionally, they will engage in discussions on other important topics related to ASC management, building a collaborative environment to address shared challenges during wartime.
The platform offers an online format, including participation in training sessions, webinars, and meetings, as well as work on an individual project as part of the "Laboratory of Changes". Participants will also have access to consultations with trainers and Programme experts. A final meeting is tentatively planned to be held offline (with a final decision closer to the event date).
Training Duration: 2 months, from October 24 to December 13, 2024. Upon completion, participants will receive a certificate.
