Introduction to Dealing with change
All members of our international partnership members participated in making these materials, therefore there are differences, for example sometimes the outcomes and objectives are more formulated for the trainers, sometimes more for the learners. Also the citation and referencing styles differ throughout the materials. We have used AI, sometimes for drafting materials, surely for the initial translations, and then proofread the texts.
