The Department of Experts in teams is an interdisciplinary academic environment with 25 employees, 16 teaching assistants, and approximately 200 learning assistants.

Our main focus in education is the course Experts in Teamwork (EiT). We work on course quality and developing the pedagogical practice, train the teaching staff, and administrate the course across the whole university. We also offer courses, classes, and seminars for students, university staff, and external participants.
