VIGIL Programs

Concepts

Seminar Structure

The duration and content of a seminar is tailored to the audience and the situation in a state. The basic framework is an on-site, hybrid or online training of 12 hours (usually three or six sessions of four or two hours respectively). This basis can be expanded to fulfil the requirement of 30 hours for one ECTS credit point by optional modules or reading assignments.

Target Audience

We aim for the leaders of a country to have the greatest effect. Our target audience are mainly government representatives of the two highest levels in a given country, usually the national government agencies and provincial government agencies. Teaching these representatives has the deepest effect on a nation as these leaders redefine their roles with a sense of integrity, carrying these ideas further down the hierarchy. Part of the effect is also the realisation of the lower ranks that integrity is the key to be promoted to the higher ranks.
