Who we are
Our educational ethos is that learning should be designed for the actual learners. Not generic or one size fits all. Every course we run and project we are involved in starts with that one goal- how can we best meet the objectives of the learners we have in mind. Eurobjectives (or your objectives!) was set up to deliver high quality education and educational services for people who love to learn (just like we do!).
Our courses are designed to improve the essential skills of staff and academics working in third level education and to assist teachers in secondary schools. They draw on our vast experience working in education but are very collaborative in nature- we all have something to learn from each other!
We are always looking for new partners and and KA2 projects to join. Our expertise and interests include inclusion and diversity, digital transformation, engaging with the fight against climate change, engagement with European values and effective language learning. Contact us if you are interested in partnering on a project.
We are always happy and ready to visit your school, college or university as an invited expert or to deliver a tailor made course.
