Specialised training
Specialised training courses
Specialised training courses are aimed at gaining professional knowledge and skills in specific domains, such as: law and administration, education, crisis management, environmental protection, etc. The purpose of the training courses is not only to present the given topics with a special focus on their cross-border specificity and to exchange experiences, but also to compare different administrative systems, management methods, a range of skills typical of each country, and good practices used in the neighbouring countries, and information exchange. Moreover, these training sessions promote and facilitate cross-border cooperation in specific fields of knowledge by connecting institutions that seek a partner on the other side of the border. They are conducted in the form of lectures which offer their participants the opportunity to take the floor and discuss a given subject matter. Training sessions are run by recognised experienced experts in the given subject matter.
