The point is that most of the  AGRI CAMP staff members are ANAU graduates. “Of course, it is a bit unusual to invite your former lecturers to your Program trainings. However, it makes your day when you hear at the end of the course that, despite of their rich background, they appreciate such interactive trainings with modern approaches and are ready to apply the skills  gained during the classes in their further activities and will transfer the acquired knowledge and skills to their ANAU colleagues”, – Lusine Tadevosyan said after the training.

                         

The training was held with lively group discussions and interesting exercises due to Lilit Asatryan, an international expert, consultant, coach and skilled trainer.
