The participants are selected by their own organisation, agency, company etc. Good knowledge of English is required.
Programme structure and training
The programme organised by the Swedish National Board of Trade will be divided in four major parts during a 12-month period. The first part being a preparatory phase, the second the two-week training in Sweden. The third part is the interim phase where the participants work with the national change projects, and the fourth part is the one-week follow-up regional seminar. The training will be carried out by Swedish and international experts through general training and capacity building of key persons in the public sector (i.e. customs, other authorities or ministries) and private sector (i.e. chambers of commerce and companies).
