Activities
In order to facilitate the exchange of
ideas and to strengthen our network, ASTP organises meetings with a high
standard of presentations and discussions throughout the year. These meetings
vary locations within Europe and consists of an Annual Conference
(at the end of springtime), as well as a two-day
Seminar (in Autumn) and a three days
Training Course in January. Additional one-day Workshops
on specific subjects are organised throughout the year,
whereas Executive Forums always take place the afternoon
preceding the Annual Conference.
Specific information on these meetings can be found under the ‘Events’
section.
