Testimonial on the Master program
The greatest value of this course is that it is based on the experiences and knowledge of people who have been working in the field of European projects for a long time. Based on that, the course material is appropriate and valuable because it was derived from problems and solutions from practice. I personally liked the trainers approach the most. Given the different levels of knowledge of course participants and their backgrounds, they have a very systematic approach and always put course participants interests first. We have done a lot of practical activities that are the best means to master such a unique matter of European projects. This focus on practical activities also helps a lot when it comes to teamwork, so it contributes a lot to connecting candidates from the course that comes from different cultural backgrounds. As the crown of these practical activities comes the final project work. In essence, it is a simulation of writing a real European project. You have the opportunity to test everything you have learned during the course and apply it to the things for which you are here- writing a real European project. So I consider this the crown of everything and the right way of how this course fulfills its purpose.
Testimonial on the Internship
The internship carried out at the Meraki, which I carried out remotely, was well organised. I was in constant communication and under the tutorship of Laura, president of Meraki. Together, we made a work plan and devised my tasks, where I could express my field of interest and what I wanted to do. So, you can adjust your tasks based on your interests and level of complexity.
I also had a lot of benefits from the flexible working hours that Meraki can provide. I carried out many different activities.
I got the chance to design and create an idea for a future project that should be led by Meraki. I had the opportunity to contact project partners and maintain communication with them, to present them with a project idea, to work with them on developing a project idea and to present to new partners in the field of European projects the principles on which European projects are based. This was a part where I used my exploring and research skills, as I had to find relevant information from various documentation. Finally, I had the opportunity to write a full project proposal together with Laura and to officially submit it.
