From February to March, four project regional meetings were organised in each regional hub and gathered partners from each region. The purpose of these meetings was to share management and administration issues as well as discuss the first phase of the project which involves each member country mapping its existing professional development opportunities for university educators. Project partners will map national and institutional initiatives, schemes and activities in this area. This data will inform four regional reports and one state of the art report which will be shared at the project annual meeting and COPERNICUS Alliance Conference which will take place from 2-3 October 2014 in Prague, Czech Republic.
