Since 2000 the Education department has cooperated with national organisations in organising special "Information days on European project management", in order to raise awareness on project work and introduce the main budget lines in this area.

The initiative consists of a one-day activity, in which the programme, participants (national and locally-based education and project officers involved in project work) and other details are decided by the Confederation, with the participation of the Education department.
Colleagues from Portugal, Spain, Italy, Austria, Finland, Sweden, Cyprus, Malta and CEECs have already taken up this offer, and the Education Department is fully available for helping organise further Information Days and will cover Silvana Pennella's travel and interpretation fee.
