Participant testimonials

"The ECEUPM (EU Project Manager) course gave me a better understanding of many practical aspects of EU projects" 

V. Pesce from Italy 

"It was a pleasant and educational experience."

Meriç from Norway

"I am also happy to inform you that we received funding for a project under ERASMUS KA1-Learning Mobility of Individuals, which is largely due to the knowledge I have gained from the course." 

Maja from FYROM / Republic of Macedonia

"I liked a lot the experience of the course, even if it's hard to study while working. I think that the choice of giving assignments at home is very good, that's really the only way to learn!"

Marta from Italy

"Although I had previous experience with ongoing EU projects, which helped me finish the certification fast, I found the course useful because the material was focused on other EU programs and getting the insight into different approaches and concepts of EU project management gave me some fresh ideas for improvement of our current project management practices."

Miha from France

"This course was an incredible learning experience – one of the most useful courses I've been on, especially with the practical advice/steps. Excellent presentation of all material, professional and very reliable learning platform. Dr. Rozman is a really knowledgeable tutor who answered all queries as the course went along. One of the best instructors I've had the pleasure of working with. Concise and clear information, all well delivered." 

Mr. Andreas Papadopoulos from Cyprus
