Becoming a successful leader isn’t just about excelling in your studies; it's also about preparing for the complex challenges of tomorrow. Here at EPFL, we understand that success goes far beyond your major or grades. The 21st-century job market is constantly evolving, and our society needs talents capable of mastering transversal skills— competencies that go beyond and across your discipline and future career.

These transversal skills, often referred to as "soft skills" or "transferable skills," are the keys to setting yourself apart. They encompass a wide range of abilities, from problem-solving to effective communication, knowing yourself to collaboration. These skills will empower you to adapt to diverse environments, thrive across various disciplines, and succeed in any professional role while enriching your personal life.

This platform is here to introduce and guide you through the training offers available on the EPFL campus. We invite you to explore how these skills can enhance your academic journey and provide you with an invaluable edge as you enter the professional world.
