By 25 years already, I’m a researcher specialised in education and training policies, finances and activities at European level, have been working as a writer, manager, or coordinator dealing with 500+ EU projects. Over my career, I have become more involved in the digital education training courses and approaches. Apart from being part of various working groups of the European Commission on digital education, I am routinely invited as an expert in conferences and seminars of an international character. 2016 saw me launch the European Digital Learning Network.
