The principal goals of the newly established working group is to research and identify new approaches towards capacity building of civil servants’ training systems according to EU requirements. The following questions should be highlighted:
• What are the present conditions of the training of civil servants?
Civil servants’ training systems should be based on the principles of systematic, continuous training and financial rationale. The systematic principle is: the training of civil servants should be implemented systematically and should include all public institutions and municipalities. The principle of continuous training: the training of civil servants should be oriented towards the permanent strengthening of administrative capacities of institutions. The principle of financial rationality: the financial resources that are allocated for the training of civil servants should ensure the efficiency of such training.
• What should be the most effective civil servants' training system according to EU standards?
Institutions that are participating in the training of civil servants must guarantee that training programmes comprise a variety of social, economic and cultural changes, good quality and the accessibility of supplied services to civil servants. What should the new approaches be towards the capacity building of a civil servants’ training system according to EU requirements?
Using case study methodology, working group papers are invited which analyse the key factors of successful practices in creating civil servants’ training systems according to EU requirements together with new approaches towards improving the quality of services delivery. Comparative research papers focusing on other countries are also welcome.
