The National Education Ministry (MEN) hosted on Wednesday the annual meeting regarding the cooperation in the education and professional training areas between Romania and France. The opening of the event was attended by Education Minister Liviu Marian Pop and France's Ambassador Michele Ramis.
"The interest that the National Education Ministry grants to the cooperation with the French Republic always has been and will remain very high, both on a bilateral and European level. I voice my satisfaction with the fruitful collaboration of Romania and France in the education area, and I assure you that the National Education Ministry will continue to do anything in its powers in order to develop the bilateral relations," Minister Liviu Pop stated, according to the quoted source.
"I am glad that priorities of France's Embassy and that of the Romanian state are very close, the excellent bilateral cooperation in the education area being a conclusive proof in this respect. One of our major concerns is the promotion of the French language in Romania, a context in which I appreciate and thank you for the constant support that you have granted," Michele Ramis stated, according to the source.
The third edition of the Romanian-French annual meeting represents an occasion to review the bilateral cooperation actions of the previous school/academic year, but also the appropriate framework to propose, analyse and plan new common projects for the current school/academic year.
"The experts' discussions aimed at cooperation in the sphere of pre-university, university, vocational and technical education, linguistic cooperation, continuous training of teachers, as well as contributions that each of the two parties can have in consolidating the connection between the academia and the socio-economic environment. Among the examples of projects tackled during the discussions, there are the development of vocational and technical education, including the dual learning, pupils mobility, exchange of experience between teachers, mentoring and control, students and university staff mobility, as well as increased direct partnerships between education units and institutions of the two countries," the release mentions.
