SUMMER SCHOOL 2020: See you in summer 2021.

Despite all our efforts and willingness to organize the Summer School in these difficult times, we regret to inform you that the School will be postponed for next year (i.e. summer 2021). Although epidemic situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina is relatively stable and many events have been organized already these days, the psychological pressure and uncertainty of the pandemic remained the greatest challenge to organize the summer school. This was the reason for taking the decision to postpone the summer school for 2021.

Summer schools organized by REIC are always dynamic education events conducted of different type of activities and interactions. We would like to keep this concept in the future. We will update you on new date. Stay safe.

[testimonial author="Tsvetoslava Spasova from Sofia, Bulgaria" description="Alumni‘s corner"] The REIC Summer School has been an amazing experience I gained back in the 2010. Being part of it made me even more certain to pursue my career in Energy Efficiency and Renewables. Over the course I had the chance to meet experts in this field, who inspired all participants. I highly recommend the event to everyone, who wants to expand their knowledge and establish new contacts. [/testimonial]

[testimonial author="Zoja Tarevska from Skopje, Macedonia" description="Alumni‘s corner"] The participation on the Regional Summer School in Fojnica, was unique experience for me for two main reasons: Meeting and connecting with new collaborators and friends from the energy sector & get familiar with new aspects regarding energy priorities in the countries of the region. I truly believe that the Summer school experience combined with the relaxing nature in Fojnica and pleasant stay, it brought pleasure to all of us participants. Sincerely I recommend and encourage future young professionals to apply for the next summer school.  [/testimonial]

[testimonial author="Albin Toljević from Visoko, Bosnia and Herzegovina" description="Alumni‘s corner"] I spent great time at REIC summer school in Fojnica. As the greatest benefit of attending school, I would like to highlight new acquaintances and acquired knowledge that helped me in my later professional career. The lecture schedule was designed so that we had enough time for the rest and entertainment in addition to the lectures. All in all, unforgettably spent seven days. [/testimonial]
