What do participants say about the course?

Karol Stańdo, PhD student: Classes on Current Developments of ECJ Case-law are an opportunity to gain practical knowledge about appearing before the CJEU and the consequences of its decisions for national law.

Dr Bartłomiej Kurcz has extensive experience and knowledge about the functioning of EU institutions. Moreover, the form of the moot court means that we can also compete with other students and learn about each case and the vocabulary used by the Court in Luxembourg in detail, without reading the judgments for many hours.

Finally, getting to know the current trends in the CJEU jurisprudence and the experiences of students from other EU countries is a great help in a later legal career. It allows applying the CJEU judgments in practice, and friendships made during classes pay off in cross-border cases. All of this in the relaxed atmosphere of the classes and frequent meetings of students after their end.
