Conference in Hamburg
We may call it a seminar of experts as the input was highly professional and the sharing of experience created new synergies. The project partners could present the products that had been jointly produced during the project time and experts Rolf Schärer, Gareth Hughes, Beate Bendorff-Helbig, Antje Neuhoff, Egle Sleinotiene gave the value added to the experience that the participants had gained during the development stages of the project. Those who attended the conference/seminar were acquainted with the project, ELP activities and outlines for the Mentoring Guidelines, as well as shared their rich experiences in using an ELP.
