CIVITAS PROSPERITY organises national training sessions for practitioners and stakeholders free of charge in 10 European countries. The training sessions are tailor-made for each country tackling – based upon an analysis - the most wanted and needed topic areas. The good mix of theory and practical exercises guarantees an effective learning experience with motivated participants. Click here for the video impression on the CIVITAS PROSPERITY trainings.
A key approach in the CIVITAS PROSPERITY trainings is to carry them out not only with expert trainers but also with the help of staff from cities that have themselves developed SUMPs. They know very well the potential administrative burdens and risks and how to overcome them. And they speak the language of the main target group. Several SUMP Champion Cities, and their representatives are also one part of the trainer tandem.
Several trainings are already carried out such as the ones in Lithuania, Cyprus, Slovenia and Croatia, Poland and Romania. Training materials are available free for download in local languages. The next oncoming trainings will be the ones in Hungary, Czech Republic, Portugal and in Bulgaria.
