To strengthen VVOB staff’s skills in writing articles, especially for web publication (media news and features, mobile and social media posts, etc.), VVOB is looking for a consultant/a team of consultants to provide an engaging and interactive training to improve the writing skills of our staff.

  • the training objectives, if and how they were reached
