Abstract

The main reason for someone to participate in an Open and Distance Education program is either the acquisition of professional skills on a given object, or the development of his existing skills and consequently their improvement. By carrying out Advisory Group Meetings (AGM) on specific issues related to the trainees, a deepening of their theoretical background and the practical aspects of their training takes place, which they all seek. In this paper we present in a concise way the course of such a meeting according to the extent that it may have, in which the theory is being associated with practice.
