Simplified Cost Options for ESI Funds

Simplified Cost Options (SCOs) are an innovative way of reimbursing grants and repayable assistance that reduces administrative costs and burden. The Common Provisions Regulation for the 2021-2027 programming period has extended the use of SCOs, making it even more important to know how to apply them efficiently.

What are the best ways of facilitating the design and assessment of SCOs and their implementation under ESI-funded programmes?

Our hybrid course in Amsterdam & online aims to find answers to this question, involving the participants in discussions about their issues and providing them with both theoretical guidance and practical examples.

Participants receive a certificate upon participation.

Methodology

The three-day Intensive Course offers the possibility to meet with experts from EU institutions and Member States as well as the private sector, academia, and diplomacy. Varied perspectives of our experienced trainers will support you in applying complex rules to your own daily practice.

To ensure that you get the best possible understanding of the topics at hand, our Intensive Course sessions combine theoretical presentations, case study analysis, and highly interactive discussions on practical issues. You will have ample opportunities to present your issues and exchange information and experiences with speakers and participants from other Member States.

Just send us your cases and questions in advance! We will forward them to our speakers, who will include your issues in the discussion. All relevant information will be treated confidentially.

Various social activities are organised for our participants to network with the experts and other participants in an informal atmosphere.
