ALBANIA - TEMPUS – Public Administration and Management in Shkoder

 
The project aims at strengthening and implementing the experiences that Formez achieved with the ALBA project, which was finalized to realize the full potential of local institutions in the Shkoder region in Albania and to create a model that can be directly transferred to other similar cases.
The collaboration with personnel from the local administrations involved in the previous project underlines the need to adapt civil servants expertise to the competencies defined in the decentralization reforms already approved by the Albanian government in 2000.
Medium-term objectives:

The aim of the European programme Tempus is to realize a cooperation in the sector of higher training, but also to extend this action beyond the academic community, involving sectors of public life and civil society. In this way, the universities can become a strengthening instrument for both civil and democratic societies, contributing updating and re-qualifying functionaries in key sectors.
The Tempus programme PAMS which is divided into 3 years, aims to create a specific curriculum in Public Administration within the faculty of Law at the University of Shkoder. This is directed to future administrative local staff with the realization of a training centre to support the decentralization process that is taking place through training activities as well as the re-qualification of P.A. personnel.
