Internationale Zentralbankkurse
Die Deutsche Bundesbank bietet seit 1995 internationale Zentralbankkurse für Notenbankmitarbeiter und Notenbankmitarbeiterinnen aus der ganzen Welt an. Sie finden entweder in Präsenz oder online statt (siehe Kursbeschreibung, bitte dies unbedingt bei der Anmeldung beachten). An den in Englisch gehaltenen Kursen können bis zu 20 Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter von Zentralbanken teilnehmen. Auf Grund der Platzrestriktionen kann nur ein Teilnehmer bzw. eine Teilnehmerin von jeder Zentralbank eingeladen werden. Mehr als 600 Zentralbankangehörige aus rund 80 Ländern nehmen jährlich an unseren internationalen Zentralbankkursen teil.
Ziel der Kurse ist es, über die rein fachliche Wissensvermittlung hinaus ein internationales Forum für den Ideen-, Meinungs- und Gedankenaustausch zu bieten. Die Bundesbank wählt daher einen differenzierten Ansatz zur Ausgestaltung ihrer internationalen Zentralbankkurse. Je nach Zielgruppe (Führungskräfte, Spezialisten, Neueinsteiger oder Nachwuchskräfte) werden die Kurse entweder als Seminar, als Kurs mit praktischen Teilen (z. B. am Computer), als Diskussionsforum oder als reiner Workshop konzipiert. Die Kursdauer variiert von drei Tagen bis zu einer Woche.
