The EU Training team is constantly working to improve and expand on our EPSO practice test database. This year is no exception with the following items to be added in preparation for the 2019 AD5 exams. 

We have some great news for candidates about to step into the Assessment Centre phase of their EPSO competition. 5 NEW English and 3 NEW French Case Study simulation exercises have been uploaded to the EU Training website! This means that a total of 18 Case Study simulations are available in English, and 5 in French.

For most EPSO competitions, candidates have the option to take the Verbal, Numerical and Abstract Reasoning Tests in any of the 24 official languages of the European Union. However, getting ready for EPSO tests can be frustrating when your choice for Language 1 is not one of the working languages of the European Union. Not to worry - we can help!

Do you have experience with applying rules of protocol in practice? The European Parliament is looking for applicants keen to join the team in the capacity of Parliamentary Ushers. This role will require you to be flexible in terms of working hours and will expect you to travel between the Parliament’s three regular places of work - Brussels, Luxembourg and Strasbourg - as well as elsewhere. 

EPSO takes a summer break in August, so this is the perfect time to put in some solid study time to gain a competitive advantage and get fully prepared for the next wave of EPSO computer-based tests and Assessment Centre exams in September. In response to this, we've just released a bunch of fabulous training sessions for August to get you ready for your upcoming EPSO exams!
