ISS - A SUCCESSFUL TRIAL FOR INTERNATIONALIZATION OF SPECIALIZED EDUCATION AND TRAINING
 
The lack of organized education of specialists is one of the
main constraints for
initial geo-thermal development all over the world. By
organization of a specific
“movable” international school for organization of short
trainings and seminars,
accommodated to the needs of country or region in question,
IGA successfully
fulfilled part of the problematic. Specific methodology of
“know-how” transfer,
choice of the most renown lectures at world level in
combination with local ones on
disposal, resulted with a continual process of successful
development.

35 courses, workshops and seminars have been organized in
Bulgaria, Germany, Greece,
Iceland, Macedonia, Poland, Slovenia, Portugal, Romania,
Turkey, U.S.A., etc , 30
text-books and proceedings have been published, Over 1000
students from 40 countries
all over the world participated some of the events organized
by ISS. This year, by
the signing of  IGA/WB GEF contract, ISS get proper
financial background for
continuing the activity during the next 5 years, mainly in
the East and South East
European Region and South West Asia.

Up to now, more than 1000 students of more than 40 countries
all over the world
participated the courses of ISS.
