Training Schools 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 + 8 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.
