The European Commission supports the call for applications released by the Ministry of Public Administration and Justice for professional language training for judges and prosecutors.

The aim of the programme is more effective specialist English language learning combined with ongoing training and courses which enable the building of interdisciplinary and international links.

The Czech Republic, Poland, Croatia and Hungary are taking part in the project, which begins next January. The interdependent modules will be taught in Prague, Krakow, Zagreb and Budapest, associated with the training academies for judges in the participating countries. The European Union will finance 80 per cent of the total costs of 124,500 euros.
