AEP

The Applied Economic Policy (AEP) course aims to enhance the capabilities of participants to formulate and implement economic policies and to serve as policy analysts and advisors. The 2025 AEP course will feature a combination of online, virtual, and classroom segments, necessitating significant involvement of participants during a considerable period of time in 2025.

TARGET GROUP | Young officials employed by the public sector in JVI target countries.

Knowledge of econometric or modeling techniques would be helpful but is not strictly required. Only individuals employed in the public sector are eligible to apply.

The AEP course is offered jointly with several JVI partners. Lecturers, primary practitioners from member organizations, cover both practical and theoretical aspects of policy formulation. The Vienna segment comprises lectures, workshops, case studies, and participant presentations to foster peer-learning and networking.
