In the period of June 19-23, 2023, in the premises of the Lawyers Training Centre, the training of 34 trainers of the Centre was provided by the international expert Mark Segal. The trainings were organized within the Project “Increasing transparency, accountability and access to the judicial system” (ETAAJS), implemented by the Central Agency for Project Management in Lithuania and Expertise France, financed by the European Union.

The trainings were conducted on the basis of the Guide for the training of lawyers: the training for trainers manual, developed within the ETAAJS Project by the international expert Mark Segal.

During the training which lasted 5 days, the trainers of the Lawyer Training Centre acquired knowledge and skills on: how to use the learning outcomes in an effective way to improve the training; make presentations and be interactive with the audience; how to use and interpret body language. The practical part of the course represented a challenge for the trainers, who were invited to demonstrate the level of understanding and transposition in their subsequent practice of the knowledge and skills obtained during the training course.
