The Global Engineers Languages and Skills (GELS) network is pleased to announce its next event.

Venue: Sorbonne Université and Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers (Cnam), Paris, France

Date: 25th, 26th, 27th June 2025

Conference website: https://gels2025.sciencesconf.org

Conference e-mail address: gels2025@sciencesconf.org

This is an in-person event with limited opportunities for online participation.

At last year’s training event, GELS members agreed to tweak the network’s name to highlight a growing interest in essential skills for engineers. Some of these skills are clearly related to language and communication, such as empathy, active listening, and presentation skills. Others, such as creativity, teamwork, and leadership, go beyond a conventional language curriculum.

This year, we would like to give members an opportunity to explore skills – the S in GELS – and to share their insights and findings with GELS colleagues.
