The shortest face-to-face course Europa Media offers is a half-day course, and some of our courses are up to 5 days long. Depending on the topic, type of the course, its complexity, and the knowledge level of the participants, the duration of our courses vary, and the length is always indicated in the course description.
Webinars last from 1 hour to full-day. Some series last up to 3 days. Duration and starting time is always indicated in the description of the webinar and in the emails following registration.
The courses in general mirror our own approach to projects and are a combination of theoretical presentations and practical hands-on workshops.
Yes, all of our webinars are recorded. If you wish, you can buy a recording at 10% off the original price.
As part of the course material, you are getting the presentations from us, so feel free to follow your usual practice, either to take notes or just enjoy our experts’ presentations. In any case, no need for presentation photographs. In case you want to take photos of/with other participants and publish them, make sure everyone agrees! Please note that participants are not allowed to make audio/video recordings during the courses.
At company level, we are using Zoom, a video conferencing platform. You will receive instructions on how to use it before the webinar you enrolled in starts. To fully benefit from Zoom, we recommend you download the Zoom application on your desktop or phone. In the past, we have experienced that using the web browser version may prevent you from seeing specific exercises. Nonetheless, you can join the course without registering to Zoom. All you need is the Meeting ID or Personal Link Name.
Our courses are held in various locations over Europe. The locations are not connected to the topics, so you can choose the topic you are most interested in and join us in e.g., Vienna, Barcelona, Brussels, our own office in Budapest, Amsterdam, Lisbon etc.
In short, our courses are for project managers and coordinators, research advisers, EU grant advisers, researchers, financial managers and accountants, grant officers and research administrators, NCPs, employees coming from public institutions, universities and research institutions, SMEs and large companies, and civil society organisations. Note that we additionally emphasise the target group in the description of every course based on the topic (e.g., whether the course is for newcomers or for the more experienced audience, for the financial and procurement department of for your colleagues who just started their Horizon Europe projects etc)

Based on the European and national VAT regulations on the rules of supply of services and VAT refunds, in case of educational services, the place of supply is where the services are physically carried out. For business customers based in the EU and having an EU VAT number and for business customers based outside the EU no VAT will be charged. For these organisations, taxation will take place in their country. For all individuals (not business customers/legal entities having a VAT number) and for Hungarian legal entities, the VAT will be charged.
