General information about training schools


Training Schools will be organised within the framework of the Action topic are aimed at:

  • Widening the knowledge of the Action activities

  • Providing intensive training on a new and emerging subject

  • Offering familiarisation with unique equipment or know how in one of the laboratories of the Action

Training Schools are not intended to provide general training or education. Those attending a Training School are typically – but not exclusively – young researchers from across Europe. Furthermore, Training Schools may also cover appropriate re-training as part of life-long learning.

A Training School can also take the form of an Early Stage Researchers (less than PhD + 10 years) network created as a "think tank".

COST support covers organisation of the school and participation support to both trainers (including external experts) and trainees.

Another activity in this Task Force is to encourage publication activities related to the Action, especially those resulting from joint activities within the network. In addition, our aim is to maintain an updated list of all publications that are being produced during the Action lifetime with connection to the Action.
