The form of the session 
Due to the current epidemiological situation in Europe, the 3rd session was run online. Participants from Poland, Bulgaria, Latvia and Hungary participated in interactive meetings carried out in MS Teams environment. Participants have also shared their knowledge and exchange experiences within Teamworks, working groups that constituted an important aspect of SYNERGIA programme.

In the evaluation studies, the participants rate highly the substantive usefulness of the project, emphasizing that the project develops new skills and the transferred knowledge is unique for people in managerial positions in public administration. The education programme is a good example of transferring interesting business practices to public administration, presenting new ways of perceiving matters and a new vision of common problems that participants face on a daily basis in the workplace.
