Every semester, the Centre for Digital Humanities presents a new Training Programme with workshops, courses and lectures. All CDH events are free and require a relatively small time investment, and most workshops are at entry-level.

For whom?

All staff members of the Faculty of Humanities at Utrecht University (UU) are warmly invited to register for our free events. Humanities students and, starting Fall 2025, UU staff from other faculties are also welcome to participate in most activities. Parts of our programme – particularly the lecture series – are open to all who are interested. Please check the event-specific details in the training calendar to see what applies to each activity.

Registration

You can find registration forms at the bottom of every event page. Please register early to secure your place, as spots are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Our CDH team looks forward to meeting you in our workshops, lectures, other events and weekly Digital Humanities walk-in hours!
