The Foundation of Advertising (FoA) and Turkish Association of Advertising Agencies (TAAA) are applying to a call for proposals opened by the EU for “improving the employment prospects of currently unemployed young graduates”.
The project aims at providing training in interactive media design for opening the recruitment path to young graduates from related departments such as computer engineering and visual communication and design. FoA needs approximately 5 experts for the technology and design sessions of the training program. Experts (professionals of interactive agencies, advertisers and academia) to be invited are expected to lecture on one or more of the following areas: Technology: Past and future of digital platforms New trends in interactive platforms Essential programming Clientside programming Serverside programming Object oriented programming Cross media & platform development Rich media development Mobile application development XML Sockets Design Theoretical and historical overview on design Understanding and describing the main problem in interactive design Brainstorming Research, interpretation and report Visual communication Customer journey Human Computer Interaction Usability Accesibility Wireframes Storytelling Each expert will be asked to stay 5 days in Istanbul. His/her flight and accomodation expenses will be covered by FoA and he/she will be paid 1.000 € in total for the 5-day lecture. Since the project also aims at conducting “train the trainee sessions” for maintaining the sustainability of the program in Turkey, the experts will also be asked to make presentations for the train the trainee sessions according to their area of expertise during those five days. The training program will start on January 2009. Please find attached the details of the project. We shall remain grateful, if you bring us in touch with experts (especially from Europe) in interaction design who would be willing to share their vision and insight in above-mentioned areas. Please contact Kind regards, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oguzhan Ozcan PS: Since the training part of the project will start on January 2009, we are not expecting experts to guarantee their participation in the project, however, in the application procedure we need to inform the related department of the Turkish Government about potential lecturers and provide them with their CVs. ------------------------------------ ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
