(25 Mar 2026) Career & Life Transitions – with Astrid Staudinger-Wood
FREE Registration ATN Annual Event
ATN Annual Event 2026 x ACCESS | 25 March 2026 | 10:00–11:30 (CET) | Online
You move to the Netherlands to grow your career.
And your life changes with it.
You move to start a new life.
And your career path changes too.
Career changes don’t happen in isolation.
For many internationals, work and life shift at the same time.
Astrid Staudinger-Wood and I see this every day.
That’s why we place this connection at the heart of our work.
On 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟮𝟱, we’re creating a supportive space for internationals navigating work transitions while life is also asking more of them. Including caring for ageing parents.
No fixing.
No rushing.
Just space to reflect, connect, and feel less alone in it.

WORKSHOP: From Academia to Industry – Translate Your Skills into Language Employers Understand
Focus: Help participants reframe their academic work into clear, relevant language for non-academic
employers — useful for CVs, LinkedIn, and interviews.
Why it matters: Highly skilled PhDs and Postdocs often undersell themselves by using overly technical or modest language. This session offers practical tools to bridge that communication gap and improve how they present their skills.
