The basic aim of the programmes is always to satisfy specific training needs of the business community which are ascertained through research conducted among the member – enterprises but also through the close monitoring of the developments and changes in the economic, legal and business environment both in Cyprus and abroad.

All the programmes are conducted by Cypriot or foreign instructors who have extensive experience and knowledge in the specific topics but also more generally in the field of training / education.

To ensure the success of the programmes, all modern training approaches are used such as multimedia projections, case studies, examples from real «business life», discussion, e.t.c.
