Welcome to the eas

The core mission of the European Administrative School (EAS) is to provide training and development opportunities to the following groups of staff in the EU institutions at various crucial stages of their career development:

• Recent recruits
• People who exercise management responsibilities or who may be called on to do so
• Assistant-grade staff selected as having the potential to become administrators

All our programmes focus on skills, attitudes and behaviours since these are qualities that are needed irrespective of the institution to which our participants belong. The programmes are also very practical in their approach in order to favour effective learning transfer to the workplace and they draw heavily on participants' own experience.

In addition, we can provide tailor-made programmes for an individual institution/EU agency.

The EAS is also an active member of the network of Directors of Institutes and Schools of Public Administration (DISPA) and its innovative approach to training and development has provoked much interest among them.

The EAS launched in july 2009 on an experimental basis a new initiative, "Managers for Europe", with involvement from this network. The programme is open to middle managers from national administrations and from the EU institutions.

Although our programmes are reserved for staff of the institutions and agencies, we hope you will find the content and methodology interesting. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any comments/questions.

We hope you enjoy your visit to our website!
