Answer:

 

The learning opportunities at Skills 4 Abroad are aimed at development cooperation experts and managers who work abroad for at least one year and their accompanying partners. The participants are prepared for the upcoming professional and personal changes and are accompanied during the initial time in their country of assignment so that they can act competently and effectively. The programme is developed and implemented by the GIZ's Academy for International Cooperation (AIZ) on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
