Lunch & Learn ist all about grabbing lunch and new ideas all at once. The online format of the Career Centre for Professorial Development (KpE) provides exciting input on various university-related topics - tailored to your lunch break.

In summer semester 2026, KpE is teaming up with the Family Service Office at TH Wildau to present Lunch & Learn on the topic of care. In three sessions, expert Marina Dillmann, head of DERINA Bildungswerkstatt für Menschen im Gesundheitswesen (Educational Centre for People in Healthcare), will provide solid, informative and interesting insights into the broad topic of care and highlight ways to relieve the burden on caregivers.
