On 8-9 December 2009, Armenian-European Policy and Legal Advice
Centre (AEPLAC) jointly with the European Union (EU) Advisory Group
to the Republic of Armenia (RA) is organizing a two-day workshop on
"Monitoring and Reporting the Progress of the Armenia-EU Action Plan
(AP) Implementation" for the Armenian government officials, which
will be held in Multi Rest House, Tsakhkadzor.

The RA President’s Instruction NK 68-A of May 6, 2009 endorsed the
"List of Actions for 2009-2011 to Ensure Implementation of European
Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) Republic of Armenia – European Union
Action Plan (ENP RA-EU AP)". Over 40 ministries and agencies are
in charge of implementation of measures under Armenia-EU Action
Plan. To ensure the timely preparation of high-quality information
on programs and works performed under the List of Actions to both
Armenian authorities and European partners, a general and uniform
system for submission of summary reports has been developed and will
be tested during the workshop.

This workshop aims at enhancing skills and understanding of the
progress reporting. It will introduce (1) basic tips for good
reporting; (2) specifics of reporting to the European Commission;
(3) the benchmarks of reporting on the ENP AP implementation; (4)
concept of e-monitoring and reporting system for measures to be
implemented under Armenia – EU ENP Action Plan in 2009-2011; (5)
demo model of the e-monitoring system and data input mechanisms.

The workshop is targeted at the governmental officials working with
the ENP AP implementation, in particular those working in the European
Integration Units. AEPLAC expert Dr. Klaudijus Maniokas, Chairman of
the Board of European Social, Legal and Economic Projects consulting
company (ESTEP), will deliver training on reporting skills. The
e-monitoring system will be presented by the experts of the EU
Advisory Group.

Transportation to Tsakhkadzor will be available on December 8 at 8:45
in front of the fountains of the Republic Square, Yerevan.
