Achievements of the University of Ljubljana in the mandate period 2013-2017
Strategic area: Ensuring conditions for strategy implementation

Goals by 2020

• Actively plan spatial development for the operation of the University of Ljubljana and better manage available facilities
• Develop a more active staff policy
• Improve information technology support of studies 

In collaboration with the Faculty of Civil and Geodetic Engineering, University of Ljubljana, we set up an electronic register of real estate. This will enable us to manage real estate more effectively and better plan future spatial project possibilities. 

Under the conditions, on account of which we had to reduce the number of employees by one percent per year, we implemented training of employees, especially for educators in the field of new teaching and learning methods. We also prepared a normative basis for employment and retirement. 

We improved information technology support of studies in that we have created an electronic register of study programmes, and we updated study information technologies in order t coordinate the needs of all University Members.
