For more than 10 years metis GmbH has been successfully implementing, monitoring and evaluating EU programmes and projects in Austria, the European Union and the EU candidate countries. EU Structural Funds have been a main focus of our work. The experience we have gathered in this field is reflected by the trainings we offer which aim at fostering a better understanding of Structural Funds management in its various aspects. 

Transfer and multiplication of know-how hence connect the vision underlying our trainings with the second part of our company name: “supporting good governance.”
 
Our trainers are metis senior consultants, experts or practitioners from public authorities in the European Union with long-lasting experience in Structural Funds implementation.
 
Our cooperation partner is ETI (European Training Institute) based in Brussels with a high reputation in the delivery of trainings concerning all kind of EU-relevant topics.


Profound expert know-how and training competence thus provide an ideal setting for participants who want to actively deepen their professional knowledge. Participants can furthermore benefit from networking opportunities with colleagues from similar institutions in other EU countries and are encouraged to use metis-seminars as a platform for a structured exchange of experiences.
