„The CSDP Annual Training and Education Conference is a unique opportunity to analyze cross-cutting training requirements and lessons identified from CSDP missions and operations, discuss recent CSDP developments and emerging policies with a view to reflecting these in training opportunities, and finally explore civilian and military convergence and synergies through networking. It is an invaluable forum that enables participants to expand their networks at the EU level and with institutes in different Member States. The ATEC will focus on emerging and cross-cutting training issues as well as adapting to key CSDP training challenges. The conference provides a great opportunity for networking and engaging with the relevant EU institutions and training institutes from all over Europe.”
