In line with the EURASIA project plan, short training visits to Catania, Sofia and Krakow were organised after the three two-week training sessions and the initial stages of curriculum development in the partner universities in China and India. The main aim of these short training sessions was to focus on individual courses, to provide further support for developing their structure, the pedagogical approaches and assessment techniques. This was an important step in the process of peer-review and validation of the content of the courses developed under EURASIA.
