online.net.
In 2006 I finished the master in European Integration Affairs, I have the understanding of the
functioning of the European institutions. I will read also about functioning of the European Union,
by consulting the “Europa” web site, in particular panorama of the European Union.
A brief and simple explanation of what the European Union is, what it does and how it works.
I already have basic knowledge in “Projects Elaboration” (project design - the identification and
formulation phases of the project cycle management, project implementation - understanding and
applying the concepts of task management, risk assessment, effective use of resources,
procurement and contracting procedures related to the specific role-structure of the project team,
monitoring and evaluation - effective project monitoring qualitative and quantative and evaluation
ex-ante, mid-term and ex-post, project cycle management - approach of the project cycle
management principles, phases programming, identification, formulation, implementation,
evaluation and tools, project organizational structure, logical framework and resources.)
2003- I attended the Comenius Course in Italy Campobasso. Language used: English.
I have spent more weeks in Europe (Hungary, Bulgaria, Germany, France, Austria, Spain, Italy,
Slovakia, and Nederland).
3.4.3 In the same time I am working in improving my English skills. Taking into consideration the
fact that the language of the course is English, it is an occasion to familiarise with English
terminology used in project management.

Please explain your reasons for applying for the training activity:
3.5.1 Please explain the expected impact of the proposed training on your personal
and professional competences, including language and intercultural benefits.
3.5.2 Please explain how you expect the training to contribute to improving the way
you perform your current job (please also briefly describe your current job).
3.5.3 Please explain how the training course you have selected matches your training
needs.
3.5.2 To be teacher and trainer is a complex and noble profession through its task: instruction,
education and free personalities’ formation, socially integrated, capable of permanent learning, with
critical and creative thinking abilities, finally, with an authentic civic moral profile. My institution
goal is initial and continues formation of interested persons in teaching/training career. The course
will give me the opportunity of an important experience and information exchanges, related to the
quality education and giving the learners a central role in the teaching-learning process and to
development of the necessary skills for a knowledge society. We should accept the challenge that
teacher education is an important part in building a common European house. Through economic
cooperation alone we will not secure a peaceful living environment in Europe. Education will play an
important role as well. For this reason teacher education is an important task in the future of
Europe. Preparatory services and continued education should be seen as desirable and normal.
Exchanges and cooperation between us, instructors and "students" of different countries and
education systems is interesting, enriching and in particular offer new perspectives. This will take a
lot of work, but it is also a lot of fun! Education in and for Europe cannot be successful if us,
instructors of teacher education and continuing training do not work together. This course is one
opportunity to learn to work together, and in my opinion is the most important aspect.
3.5.3 Considering these, I believe that “European Project Planning and Management" offers me the
opportunity to gain more knowledge regarding quality project planning in general and project
planning and management in education, in particular (information analysis and formulation of
ideas, eligibility and feasibility criteria, development of the trans-national partnership, analysis of
the application form, the project planning process, criteria for project selection, tools for the self
evaluation of the project's quality project approval process). As I said earlier at the present time,
there is a tendency in the education system of obtaining founds based on projects. I and all of my
colleagues want to elaborate a course for teachers to prepare them for future job situations so that
they can contribute confidently and effectively when working on projects or managing project
teams.
3.6.1 Please show that the selected training activity abroad will have a greater
potential value than similar training in your country.
3.6.2 Please indicate whether and how your participation in the training activity will
contribute to giving a European dimension to your organisation.
3.6.3 If you intend to use any of the Europass tools please give details. If you need
more information on Europass, please consult the following web site.

3.6.1 More than that, the fact that the institution succeeds to have a teacher participating at a
Grundtvig course is often possibility of the to find a partner for further European cooperation, for
Grundtvig partnerships. I will have the opportunity for updating some parts of curriculum
(modernisation of some contents, methods and teaching approaches), stimulating flexibility and
innovation in teaching & learning process among teachers and participants, I will also improve
awareness about education sector, working conditions, education and teaching issues from other
countries and most of all I will exchange ideas and best practice with colleagues across Europe.
Cooperation makes changes in the lives of participants by giving us self-confidence, improving ours
motivation to learn, communication skills and their understanding of other cultures. The training
program will offer me space to connect with colleagues, share expertise and explore new ideas, will
increase the accessibility and participation of adults in formal and non- formal education and will
create a positive learning culture by recognising and meeting educational needs.
At the moment of post-integration of Romania in the EU, the Romanian educational system will be
able to access European funds and there will be a need to have people qualified to conduct projects
at a European level.
3.6.2 The most important contribution will be the integration of our institution with Europe. So the
moral relation will develop. The requirements will be done by the related units, especially the
administrative according to the content of the course, our institution will take its place as a learning
organization. Teachers Training House Prahova needs a real implication in the Lifelong Learning
Programme and should use this opportunity in order to prepare its stuff for the changes which will
take place in Romania in the next couple of years in its path towards becoming an EU member.
From my experience and from the experience of other participants in LLP programmes I realise that
it gives you the opportunity to assess new methods, style and ideas, and it leads to improvements
in the quality of education. It is also a great way to enhance cross-curricular work and co-operation
between staff. Every organization has a specific organization culture. I think to reflect our
institution’s culture, our leadership attitudes in effecting people and what are done to be a learning
organization will contribute to our institutions involvement in the LLP programme.
Grundtvig also allows schools and colleges to forge partnerships with the local community.

3.7.1 The participation at this in-service training course is regarded as an opportunity for me as a
trainer and for the institution. "Society needs education. Quality education needs quality teachers.
Quality teachers require efforts, time and us, trainers." My institution, Teachers’ Training House,
sustained the innovation and changes of educational reform enable the environment for
professional and personal development of all teachers from undergraduate schools, promotes
training programs which sustain long life learning, in order to achieve quality in education. Is an
active centre of resources orientated towards personal and professional development for all
teaching and administrative staff who belong to educational field in Prahova county. By its diversity
of activities, Prahova County Teacher Training House is a real space of European integration for
pre- university system of education in Prahova county. OUR MISSION is “We learn to be together”.
The main goal of the course is to provide participants with the skills to enable them to: use
community resources in their professional field in order to carry out development projects,
understand and make their way through the community funding opportunities managed by the
European Commission, interpret a call for proposal for funding correctly, carry out the procedures
necessary for the presentation of a project, create an effective project partnership and set out an
application form correctly. I will analyse all the acquired information and I will use them in
managing project which will have as outcomes the improvement of educational activities. I will
inform my colleges through dissemination activities: presentation, workshops, reports, articles in
newsletters, forum of discussions for teachers, trainers and experts and, hopefully, will create a
group which will have the responsibly of writing application forms, applying for funds and manage
projects. The methods and procedures learned at the course will help me to elaborate more
efficient strategies in the educational process. I will organise better the working space inside and
outside the group, I will give more attention to the work environment and to the motivations for
the learners learning process. Integrating the calculation techniques and accessing useful websites
will enlarge the information and knowledge area for the learners. The impact on the diversification
of the learning curriculum will be determined by: introduction of new topics in the optional
curriculum of some subject matters; introduction in the curriculum planning of some activities
related to the European values and realities knowledge; promoting the computer/internet and video
player in the learning activities; presenting to the learners of another educational, cultural and
economics values in order to stimulate them to prepare for life. A better understanding of the
European realities will show them the way in a universe without constraints.
3.7.2 A dissemination plan is essential to all successful courses. It will enable sustainability of
course results and ensure continuation of relationships between both the organizators themselves
and between participants. Dissemination is a process that involves a share of results and
experiences with the aim of influencing the way other people think and act, or of making them
aware of a new idea, product or service.
I will disseminate:

- Methods
- Good practise
- Experience

Grant rules
If your application is successful, the grant will make a contribution towards travel,
subsistence and, if applicable, language preparation and visa costs. Your National
Agency (NA) will decide on the actual grant amount.
Persons with special needs may apply for specific financing measures, as indicated in the
section on "Special needs" below.
Travel costs
Travel costs, including entry/exit visa costs if necessary, are based on real costs
incurred. The grant may cover up to 100 % of all travel costs; the cheapest rates must
be used. Travel costs include local/regional travel from the place of departure in the
home country and to the destination in the host country. The National Agency will check
that the cheapest rates have been used in all travel. If selected, you will have to submit
receipts to your National Agency.
Air travel may be used only for journeys of more than 400 kilometres unless a sea
crossing is necessary. In the case of travel by car, the eligible amount will be based on
the cheapest equivalent travel fare (e.g. air travel, bus, train etc) but will at any rate not
exceed the cost of one equivalent first class rail fare regardless of the number of people
travelling in the car.
If individuals reside in one of the overseas countries and territories listed in Decision
2001/822/EC of the Council or have one of these territories as destination, real incurred
travel costs will be reimbursed in full, irrespective of the duration of the mobility activity.
Travel insurance costs are not covered. They can be supported from the subsistence
grant.
Subsistence rates
Subsistence rates will be calculated and paid on the basis of the relevant rates,
depending on the duration of the mobility activity. Grantholders do not have to keep
receipts for subsistence costs.
Please consult your NA's website for the applicable rates and for the instructions on
calculating the subsistence grant.
