KA1 structured courses

Course catalogue

Five structured courses for education staff, plus job shadowing, peer learning, study visits and teaching assignments hosted on Chios.

Every course below runs in English over five working days, and ends with a concrete output you take back to your organisation — a lesson or workshop plan, an action plan, a learning scenario, an assessment rubric or a dissemination plan — plus a certificate of attendance stating contact hours.

Field-based activities are scheduled only when weather, accessibility, participant needs and local conditions allow. Every course has an indoor or sheltered equivalent planned in advance, so no learning outcome depends on the season.

Use the filters to narrow by field, or ask us directly — we will tell you honestly if another provider fits your objective better.
