The trainings aimed at increasing capacities of IIWGEI members on the overall framework and principles of selected chapters, EU relevant institutions, acquis requirements and the dynamics of the accession negotiations. During the same period two Training of Trainers were conducted for ASPA trainers with the purpose of building local expertise and creating a pool of experts, capable of delivering EU Acquis - related trainings, combining innovative methods and techniques.
