During the 2022 – 2023 and 2023-2024 academic years, Ukrainian HEIs – consortium partners, enrolled 2397 trainees – professionals from 7 project fields and teachers of HEIs in advanced training programmes based on the project results including a new methodology for teaching countering hybrid threats. These LLL programmes have been specially developed, considering the target professional audience, which is specific to each partner.
The most diverse programmes are offered at the Center for Continuous Cultural and Artistic Education of the National Academy of Managerial Staff of Culture and Arts. In particular, they developed special programmes for training experts for the Ukrainian Cultural Fund and for the rehabilitation of chaplains (in cooperation with the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra). Open lectures for trainees of professional associations have been launched, taught by lecturers from all project partners. This approach ensures that each specific domain is taught as professionally as possible.
For example, for partners who, due to intense hostilities, cannot launch LLL programmes, NAMSCA engages project experts from other partner universities to provide appropriate expertise in the relevant domains demanded by the trainees of LLL programmes.
