European Commission logoThe free online course on "Regions, EU institutions and policy-making" can be accessed via the Iversity.org online learning platform.
The course is designed for local and regional authorities but is open to all those interested in the EU, its regions and cities.
Over the period of eight weeks about 50 politicians, experts and academics will discuss topics of interest to local and regional authorities such as EU cohesion policy, smart specialisation, migration and access to EU programmes - among others.
The course involves videos, factsheets and live debates to be web-streamed from the Committee of the Regions, plus a social forum for exchange and feedback. Those who finish 80% of the course can receive a Statement of Participation.
