The Kyiv School of Economics is opening enrollment for the course “European Integration for Civil Servants.”

The program is designed for professionals involved in EU accession negotiations, reform implementation, and cooperation with European institutions.

The course will help participants better understand how EU policies are developed and implemented, how decisions are made at the level of EU institutions, and how this knowledge can be applied in the process of aligning Ukrainian legislation with European norms and standards.
