Successful attendance of the EU Project Preparation and Implementation Manager program brings valuable knowledge and skills needed to master the complex process of applying and implementing EU projects. The lecturers were great, full of good advice and examples from their own practice. Recommended to anyone who wants to improve in this area.
Upon completion of the training program in the field of public procurement, I can only give words of praise. The lecturers are well prepared, they know the subject matter well, and the best of all is that they hold lectures based on their own experience. The classes are very interactive, and participants are invited to share their own experiences and dilemmas. Thanks to the excellent lecturers, public procurement is no longer such a bogeyman for me. This will certainly not be my only experience with the EU Projects College! Well done
I have attended a number of different educational programs and the lectures are always very current, concrete and applicable, the lecturers are extremely professional and approachable with understanding and respect for each participant - that's wonderful! Excellent support even after the end of the program.
My journey with UEP is not only about developing business skills and learning for career development, but it is an important link in the development of my life attitudes and life skills!
On the other hand, 1000% to the point
A warm recommendation for all individuals and organizations who want to do something useful in their environment tomorrow. Education tailored to the practical needs of what is required by the application for EU funds.
One of the most useful trainings I've been to. A well-hit ratio of lectures and practical work, during which experienced leaders excellently explained each step in the process of planning and writing an EU project project. Also, I would mention instructions and advice that are not written somewhere in the project documentation and official instructions, so practical first-hand information. An added value of the workshop is the elaborated own project proposal.
I attended several seminars related to EU funds. After this, they are not worth mentioning.
Excellent preparation of the lecturers, concrete answers to the questions asked by the participants. A combination of theory and concrete examples from practice. In a word: excellent! Praise to all!
Excellent education! The project implementation process is explained in a simple and clear way. Without unnecessary "talking". Summarized precisely on the targeted issue. With professional and open lecturers in a pleasant environment, education was a real pleasure!
