Courses in 2025"The CAS at ETH NADEL is the ideal training for strengthening competence and knowledge in development cooperation. This is thanks to the successful mix of method and policy-oriented courses on the one hand, which provide theory and insights into practice, and to the flexible structure on the other hand, which allows a high degree of personalization. Interaction with lecturers and other participants is very beneficial."
