Training Schools

Among the many opportunities that COST provides for all researchers across Europe, COST Training Schools give young scientists a focused and multi-disciplinary platform to access the highest level of expertise from leaders in their field.

From three days to two weeks long, these workshops are organised by COST Actions to share their knowledge and involve all generations of researchers in their work.

Each participant takes advantage of intensive training on new and emerging subjects, and learns about tomorrow's avenues of opportunity.

Most importantly, the networks and discussions generated by Training Schools are the basis of future scientific cooperation - and future COST Actions.

The rules are explained at the COST Webpage in the COST Guidelines Chapter 4
