Symposion’s spin offs:
Symposion Network is the European Teacher Education Think Tank. Often ideas and prototypes created within Symposion Network later become regular parts of international mobility projects like Erasmus+!
Symposion Network is publishing a new podcast - Teaching Europe! Experts from all Symposion member universities speak on various educational topics! Series 1 is on inclusion.
