By implementing the project our objectives was to train the school management and teaching staff of the Technical School of Paphos and improved their knowledge, skills and experience with seminars in: 1. Educational Leadership and Management and 2. Pedagogical methods and procedures for dealing with Students attitude (bad behavior) seminar. The involvement of teachers in European programs should enrich the school capacity in terms of knowledge, skills and experience. The participation of teachers in such a project doubtless was going to improve not only the students school achievement but also their social behavior in the school. Moreover, the acquired experiences shared with the colleges back to school and transferred and enrich the community during their work and social activities. Such programs carry a dual benefit, firstly, the accumulation of valuable Knowledge about the seminar subject and secondly, the diffusion of our culture, and tradition outside our county. The program also contributed to the promotion of the European perspective across Europe spreading the culture, knowledge and skills reciprocally among the partners.
