Most of ECTP-CEU’s policies and organisation is drafted by Working Groups presenting their outcomes to ECTP-CEU’s Executive Committee (ExCo) and General Assembly (GA).
These Working Groups are constituted by members of the ExCo, delegates to the GA and even individual members of ECTP-CEU’s member organisations. In many cases, a Working Group’s activity concludes with a publication, product or event.
