This year’s winter edition of EIPA’s regular course on the EU policy cycle will bring you up to date on the Better Regulation package introduced by the Juncker Commission in 2015, as well as on other issues in inter-institutional relations which will affect the work of all those concerned with EU affairs. This comprehensive course gives participants a thorough understanding of how EU laws are made, making use of a combination of structured discussions, simulations, and cases. By the end of the seminar, participants will be better equipped to manage a European dossier through all the relevant stages of the EU policy process, from inception to implementation.
