Target group
The EMESCS pilot course will be addressed to
Euro-Mediterranean Senior Civil Servants or
people aspiring to managerial positions in public
administration.
It is intended, as a first instance, for central
Public Administration middle-rank and young
public managers of the Euro-Mediterranean area.
Training method
The pilot course will include an e-learning period to
be followed and validated by an in-class session
The e-learning instrument is a crucial tool to deepen
issues, read materials and statistics and self–
evaluation of participants (through pre-assessment,
intermediate and final tests)
During the residential part (in-class), practical group
exercises will enable to compare different
experiences of a same topic
Training method

The training programme will both be based on
general and country-specific modules based on
local experiences

In-class sessions will be articulated in plenary
sessions and parallel sessions, working groups
(topic/country-specific
groups)
and
feedback
plenary sessions (to report on topic/country-specific
groups)
