TRAINING GUIDE ON THE RULE OF LAW FOR JUDGES AND PROSECUTORS

This Training Guide is designed to improve the quality and methodological implementation of modern judicial training in the rule of law field by the EJTN and its Members. The EJTN believes that the rule of law should form an important part of the formal training programmes of the national judicial training bodies.

The rule of law is a common value for all EU Member States, thus a common approach to training on such an important common value needs to be adopted. 

The objectives of this Training Guide are to share knowledge of how to design training events in the rule of law field, how to implement such programmes and, finally, how to best evaluate the process and the results of such training. 

This Training Guide builds on the EJTN’s expertise collected over the years and articulated in such celebrated EJTN publications as the Handbook on Judicial Training Methodology in Europe, published in 2016, and the Judicial Training Methods Guidelines for Evaluation of Judicial Training Practices, published in 2017. 

In parallel to this Training Guide, another published output from this project is Rule of Law in Europe. Perspectives from practitioners and academics.
