As part of the expert mission,
oth centres were visited by Dr. Kathleen Houchin, who prepared a report and a set of recommendations aimed at institutional development. The report was forwarded to the centres on 15 June, based on examination of documents related to the centres as well as interviews with all the staff. Dr. Houchin’s overall impression was that centres were productive and that the reference texts they produce and the training methodology they utilise reflect the centres’ professionalism, although both centres continue to work under considerable pressure. As part of the expert mission, from 27 to 29 September the centres were visited by Mr. Pasquale Profiti, prosecutor from Italy and a CoE expert. The aim of the mission was to develop training needs assessment methodologies.
