A boost for careers
The European Junior Water Programme is a two-year part-time programme to prepare junior professionals (2-8 yrs. work experience) for leadership in European water management. They learn about transcultural communication and cooperation, develop knowledge on European Water policies, Water Footprint, practice skills in leadership and create a unique network within the European context. EJWP is a great opportunity to boost a career in European water management.
For employers within the water management sector the European Junior Water Programme offers an opportunity to empower their junior professionals to bring a wealth of knowledge, skills, tools and networking power on a European level to their organization. It is an excellent way to create a network with other European water management organizations and strengthen your employer brand. Moreover, it provides you the opportunity to have a team of EJWP participants work on an integrated and tailor-made solution for a specific challenge your company faces. Innovation was never readier at hand!
