CHASE ACADEMY
The CHASE Academy is a series of lectures by Competence Center CHASE GmbH in which internal and external speakers make their expertise from various fields available to our colleagues to increase our knowledge and bring us closer together as a team.
LET'S TALK
​​The presentations take place on selected dates, in person on designated locations as well as online in the form of Teams meetings, depending on the ocassion.

If you are interested in speaking, you can register at academy@chasecenter.at by providing the title of your talk, the desired date and the content with a short description of your topic.
​​
The invitations will be forwarded by e-mail to our colleagues who can then register by e-mail.
​​
Important: The expertise we are looking for does not have to be related to our job, but can come from different areas, from marathon running to proper nutrition to the latest communication trends.
