Journeys

Life is an individual journey - and so is your career!

At the LBG Career Center, we understand that every career is a unique journey, filled with opportunities, challenges, and milestones. Whether you are a researcher aiming to take the next step in your career, a leader navigating the complexities of managing research, or a dedicated administrative professional supporting research, your journey begins in a different place and develops differently, with distinct needs, aspirations, and goals.

As your career progresses, the path you take will evolve, and so will the support and resources you require. Our journeys are not a one-size-fits-all solution; instead, they are a tailored collection of programs, formats, and services that you can select based on where you are and what you need at every stage of your career. They provide flexible and individual paths that empower you to grow, adapt, and thrive while achieving your personal and professional goals. Whether you're looking to deepen your research expertise or develop your leadership skills, our Career Journeys empower you to shape your own path with the guidance and tools that will support your growth and success.

Through workshops, training sessions, and one-on-one coaching, that you put together the way you need it, we foster skills, self-awareness, and resilience for long-term success. We combine practical knowledge with a focus on mindfulness and well-being, ensuring you not only excel but also maintain balance along the way.

No matter where you start or what your destination may be, the LBG Career Center is committed to walking alongside you, every step of the way.

So far the Career Center has put together 3 different Career Journeys.

Competence Cluster


Our Competence Clusters encompass the key areas of expertise essential for personal and professional growth in research & beyond.

In general, we take into account the skills from ESCO (European Skills, Competences, Qualifications and Occupations) in our offers. ESCO is the European multilingual classification of Skills, Competences and Occupations.

The competencies for researchers are based on the EU Research Comp, the European Competence Framework for Researchers. In other specific areas of work, we take into account additional competence frameworks such as the DigComp Framework for Digital Skills.

By aligning with the recognized EU skills framework, we enable researchers and research organizations to compare and present their skills across organizational and national borders.
