Become a CAP Pro - online e-learning course on CAP reform now for free

Groupe de Bruges has been engaged in involving the general public in the debate about more sustainable European agriculture, food and corresponding policies in the past years. Last November the Groupe de Bruges launched a unique e-learning platform, www.caneucapit.eu, which has been built on the objective to increase and disseminate the knowledge and discussion of the reformed CAP not only for academics and other experts, but to make this rather complex policy also accessible in a simple way to the general public.

The platform consists of five parts: CAP Game, CAP Basic videos, CAP Pro course, CAP Webinars & CAP Forums. We would like to raise your attention to the CAP Pro course, a comprehensive high-level e-learning course on the Common Agricultural Policy. The course has been developed by renowned academic and other experts from across Europe for all who are professionally active in the field of policy implementation, agriculture, food and rural development as well as for academics and students in these fields. The course consists of eight separate modules. See the attached brochure for more details.

The course is available in English, Italian, French and German and can be followed in any order, at any time and at your own pace.

Thanks to the European Commission and other sponsors, as off today we can offer this unique course absolutely for free!

A certificate will be issued for those that successfully complete individual modules or the whole course. Check the ‘Can EU CAP it?’ website for more information.
