- Seminars
Seminars have different themes and topics, and usually are divided in three parts: presentation of the subject, work groups monitored by the trainers; and evaluation.
- Non formal education
Non formal education refers to education which takes place outside of the formally organised school and the main goal is to “Learn by doing”. Most of the training courses are organised at international level.
