Course report

ETUI-REHS Education, in cooperation with General Workers Union of Malta, organised a training course on project management for trade union officers with 12 participants, from 8 Member countries and 9 Trade Union Organisations.

The participants have been working through all the course on the simulation of a transnational project idea, partly conceived before coming to the course, responding to the priorities of their organisation.

Special attention has been given to the elements of team building, and to the discussion around the new ETUI-REHS web site and the EU Information Service.
