EASO — ANNUAL TRAINING REPORT 2014 — 5

Introduction

Note:

This report draws upon data provided by the EASO Training Cockpit from 2010 onwards. Its purpose is to measure progress in the implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum and does not intend to provide any data on any other national training available in EU+ States and by other stakeholders (1).

At the current stage, the EASO Training Cockpit is only counting training participants. Hence an individual attending several training sessions will be counted several times.

Data is generated from the registration list of participants in the EASO Training Curriculum (national train-ing and train‑the‑trainers’ sessions) provided by EU+ States and other stakeholders.

The EASO Training Cockpit only records participants who have completed a full training session (e‑learning session + face‑to‑face session). Therefore divergence of data between the EASO Training Cockpit and the Member States’ records may result when EASO has not been informed that a participant did not complete a full training session (no update in the registration list).

Reference to the date of a session is made in the beginning of the online training course. Therefore, two online training sessions with two different online start dates but with the same face‑to‑face dates and the same trainers will be counted as two sessions. Moreover, a national training session with an online session starting in December 2014 followed by a face‑to‑face session in January 2015 will be included in the 2014 records.

(1) All training delivered in non-EU+ States and/or by external partners (Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees – UNHCR, Austrian Centre for Country of Origin and Asylum Research and Documentation – ACCORD, Prague Process, Quality Initiative in Eastern Europe and South Caucasus – QIEE, etc.).

EASO — ANNUAL TRAINING REPORT 2014 — 7

1. Progress in the implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum with regard to EU+ States and other stakeholders

Progress in the implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum is monitored and analysed on the basis of the following data:

• the number of participants in the EASO training modules,

• the number of participants per module,

• the number of train-the-trainers’ sessions and national training,

• the number of train-the-trainers’ sessions and national training per module,

• the evolution in the top 5 EASO training modules.

It is important to note that the records only take into account the absolute number of training participants. The graphs do not take into account the relative size of each national authority. This means that some Member States appear as low-ranking in absolute number even if a significant amount of staff therein has undergone training in the EASO Training Curriculum.

Graph5:ParticipationintheEASOTrainingCurriculumin2014bystate,includingotherstakeholders(nationaltraining+train‑the‑trainers’sessions)

Summary

• The steady increase in the implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum has been confirmed with a rise of 31 % in participation in the EASO training modules in 2014 compared to 2013.

• In 2014 some 2,819 asylum officials from EU+ States were trained in the EASO Training Curriculum compared to 2,158 in 2013 (+31 %).

• Some 286 asylum officials have been trained in 2014 to become national trainers, representing an increase of 70 % in comparison with 2013.

• The increase is also visible in the number of national training sessions (179 sessions organised in 2014 compared to 141 sessions in 2013) and in the number of participants in national training (2,533 par-ticipants in 2014 compared to 1,989 in 2013).

• In 2014 every trainer who completed train-the-trainers’ session in the EASO training module has trained on average 8.8 participants at national level (so-called multiplier effect).

• Between 2012 and 2014 the multiplier effect amounted to 9.7 participants trained at Member States’ level by every person who completed the train-the-trainers’ session in the EASO Training Curriculum.

National Trainings in EU+and others (2013)

EASO — ANNUAL TRAINING REPORT 2014 — 13

Summary

• The Inclusion module was the most popular module in 2014 with 29 % of the total number of partici-pants in EASO Training Curriculum. The number of participants who completed the Inclusion module increased by 25 % compared to the previous year.

• The Interview Techniques was the second most popular module with 18 % of the total number of par-ticipants. The number of participants in this particular module increased by 98 % compared to 2013. Furthermore, the 502 participants in the Interview Techniques module in 2014 represent 57 % of all participants trained in this module since 2010.

• The third most attended module in 2014 and 2013 was the Evidence Assessment, with an increase of 87 % in the number of participants trained in 2014 compared to 2013.

• The number of participants in the Inclusion, Interview Techniques and Evidence Assessment modules respectively confirms that the learning path for asylum case officers, adopted by EASO at the end of 2013, has been successfully implemented by Member States.

• Two additional modules among the top 5 in 2014 were advanced versions of the Interview Techniques module, dealing with interview techniques of specific categories of applicants, namely vulnerable persons and children.

• The strongest progression was made in the Common European Asylum System module (+540 %) and the Interviewing Children module (+376 %).

• The Module for Managers has been developed in 2013-2014 and was used for the first time in 2014.

• Due to the EASO plan to develop a new module on fundamental rights and international protection in the EU, Member States did not make use of the International Refugee Law and Human Rights module in 2014.

2. Profile of participants from EU+ States and other stakeholders in the EASO Training Curriculum (3)

Reading example: 86 % of participants registered in EASO Training Curriculum performed the task ‘Preparation and undertaking of asylum interviews and hearings’.

Please note that one asylum officer may perform several tasks.

Summary

• The largest percentage of participants in the EASO Training Curriculum is responsible for preparing and undertaking asylum interviews (86 %). The second most common profile relates to drafting asylum deci-sions (75 %), while 59 % of the participants deal with analysis of facts and documentation following an asy-lum interview. This corresponds to the core tasks which are most commonly shared by case officers across the EU+ States confirming that the EASO Training Curriculum is reaching its primary target audience.

• The lowest percentage of participants represents persons who are responsible for drafting and supervis-ing the implementation of asylum procedural guidelines (3 %) and for producing country reports and/or eligibility guidelines, which confirms that middle managers and policy officers have not been benefiting enough from the Curriculum.

(3) Profile has been prepared on the basis of information available since June 2013, i.e. since the beginning of the collection of data regarding the task description of participants in the EASO Training Curriculum.

• In 2014, almost 15 training sessions (national training + train-the-trainers’ sessions) were organised in the module, compared to less than five sessions in 2013.

• Since 2010, 20 Member States, Norway and other stakeholders organised training sessions in the Interviewing Children Module.

• In 2014, the Interviewing Children module was used by nine Member States and other stakeholders.

ProfileofparticipantsintheDublinIIIRegulationmodule

Reading example: 63 % of participants registered in Dublin III Regulationmodule performed the task ‘Preparation and undertaking of asylum interviews and hearings’ as stated in the registration forms.

Please note that one asylum officer may perform several tasks.

Summary

• The implementation of the Dublin III Regulation module has varied over time. In 2013 the module was followed by 88 asylum officials, while in 2014 the overall number of participants decreased to 75 (-14 %). This decrease was mainly caused by the adoption of the Dublin III Regulation (4) and the nec-essary update of the module which followed. The update was launched in 2013 and finalised in 2014.

• The vast majority of participants in the Dublin III Regulation module are responsible for drafting asy-lum decisions (85 %), analysing facts and documentation following an asylum interview (83 %) and interviewing applicants for international protection (63 %).

• In 2014 only seven training sessions (national training + train-the-trainers’ sessions) were organised in the module compared to nine sessions in 2013.

• Since 2010, 21 Member States, Switzerland, Norway and other stakeholders organised training ses-sions in the Dublin III Regulation module.

• In 2014 the Dublin III Regulation module was used by 15 Member States.

• The Dublin III Regulation module is available in two language versions.

(4) Regulation (EU) No 604/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 establishing the criteria and mechanisms for determining the Member State responsible for examining an application for international protection lodged in one of the Member States by a third country national or a stateless person (recast).

ProfileofparticipantsintheDraftingandDecisionMakingmodule

Reading example: 79 % of participants registered in Drafting and Decision Making module performed the task ‘Preparation and undertaking of asylum interviews and hearings’ as reported.

Please note that one asylum officer may perform several tasks.

Summary

• The trend in the implementation of the Drafting and Decision Making module has varied over time. A decrease in participation was observed in 2013, while in 2014 the numbers increased slightly. In 2012 the module was followed by 157 asylum officials, while in 2013 and 2014 the overall number of participants amounted to 65 and 70 participants respectively.

• It is to be noted that the decrease in participation in the Drafting and Decision Making module might be related to the introduction of the learning path for asylum case officers in 2013, with the core modules being Inclusion, Interview Techniques and Evidence Assessment. EASO has also acknowledged the fact that in terms of content, the training module on Drafting and Decision Making has similar elements to the modules on Evidence Assessment as well as Inclusion. In 2014 EASO further discussed this matter with Member States and agreed upon a course of action where the availability of this module would eventually be suspended while elements of it would be integrated in other modules in the Training Curriculum (Inclusion and Evidence Assessment).

• The majority of participants in the Drafting and Decision Making module are responsible for analysing facts and documentation following an asylum interview (81 %), interviewing applicants for interna-tional protection (79 %) and drafting asylum decisions (73 %).

• In 2014 only five training sessions (national training + train-the-trainers’ sessions) were organised in the module compared to four sessions held in 2013 and 11 sessions in 2012.

• Since 2010, 22 Member States, Switzerland, Norway and other stakeholders organised training ses-sions in the Drafting and Decision Making module.

• In 2014 the Drafting and Decision Making module was used by only one Member State and other stakeholders.

• The Drafting and Decision Making module is available in eight language versions.

ProfileofparticipantsintheAsylumProceduresDirectivemodule

Reading example: 100 % of participants registered in Asylum Procedures Directive module performed the task ‘Preparation and undertaking of asylum interviews and hearings’ as reported.

Please note that one asylum officer may perform several tasks.

Summary

• The trend in the implementation of the Asylum Procedures Directive module has varied over time, with no participants in 2013 and 5 participants in 2014. Limited use of the module in 2013 and 2014 was mainly due to the adoption of the recast Asylum Procedures Directive (5) and the necessary update of the module which followed. The update was finalised in 2014 with the pilot train-the-train-ers’ session held in November 2014.

• All participants in the Asylum Procedures Directive module are responsible for preparing and under-taking interviews with applicants for international protection. Additionally, some of them analyse facts and documentation following an asylum interview (67 %) or supervise/review other casework-ers’ asylum decisions (67 %).

• Since 2010, training sessions in the Asylum Procedures Directive module were organised by eight Member States and other stakeholders.

• In 2014, the Asylum Procedures Directive module was used by one Member State and other stakeholders.

• The Asylum Procedures Directive module is available in English only.

ü Interviewing Children, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and six national training sessions with 84 participants;

ü Interviewing Vulnerable Persons, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and three national training sessions with 55 participants;

ü Exclusion, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and three national training sessions with 51 participants;

ü Country of Origin Information, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and five national training sessions with 43 participants.

• In terms of the profile of participants in the EASO Training Curriculum, it is noted that 92 % of trainees are responsible for interviewing applicants for international protection, analysing facts and documentation following an asylum interview and drafting decisions on international protection.

• Experts and trainers nominated by Belgium cover 32 positions in the EASO Training and Expert Pool.

EASO — ANNUAL TRAINING REPORT 2014 — 63

Summary

• The implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum started in Bulgaria in 2014 with the organisation of three national training sessions and training of 38 participants.

• Out of three national training sessions organised in 2014, two sessions were held in the Interviewing Vulnerable Persons module with 23 participants attending, which amounts to 61 % of the Bulgarian participants in national training sessions of the EASO Training Curriculum. One session was held in the Interview Techniques module with 15 participants trained (39 % of the Bulgarian participants in national training sessions of the EASO Training Curriculum).

• In 2014 nine participants from Bulgaria completed EASO’s train-the-trainers’ sessions (+200 % com-pared to 2013). The participants have been trained to become national trainers in the following mod-ules: Inclusion, Module for Managers, Country of Origin Information and Evidence Assessment.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 13 Bulgarian participants attended train-the-trainers’ sessions in the EASO training modules.

• The multiplier effect in Bulgaria can be observed on the basis of the Interviewing Vulnerable Persons module, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become national trainers and two national training sessions with 23 participants.

• In terms of the profile of participants in the EASO Training Curriculum, it is noted that all trainees from Bulgaria are responsible for interviewing applicants for international protection, analysing facts and documentation following an asylum interview and/or drafting decisions on international protection.

• As of the end of 2014, Bulgaria did not nominate any content experts or trainers to the EASO Training and Expert Pool.

Summary

• An increase in implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum in Cyprus has been observed in 2014.

• Between 2013 and 2014, 58 % of the participants in national sessions of the EASO Training Curriculum were trained in the Evidence Assessment module and 42 % in the Inclusion module.

• In 2014 three participants from Cyprus completed EASO’s train-the-trainers’ sessions. The participants were trained to become national trainers in the following modules: Dublin III Regulation, Interviewing Children, and Evidence Assessment.

• Between 2010 and 2014, eight participants from Cyprus attended train-the-trainers’ sessions.

• The multiplier effect in Cyprus can be observed on the basis of the following modules:

ü Evidence Assessment, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and one national training session with 21 participants;

ü Inclusion, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and one national training session with 15 participants.

• In terms of the profile of participants from Cyprus in the EASO Training Curriculum, it is noted that all trainees are responsible for COI research. In addition, 97 % of the participants deal with interviewing applicants for international protection, analysing facts and documentation following an asylum inter-view and/or drafting decisions on international protection.

Summary

• A decrease in use of the EASO Training Curriculum in the Czech Republic has been observed since 2013. While in 2012 87 participants were trained in national training sessions in the EASO training modules, in 2013 the number of trainees decreased to five and in 2014 no national training session was organised.

• The last national training session organised in the Czech Republic in 2013 was delivered in the Country of Origin Information module.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 42 % of the Czech participants in national training sessions were trained in the International Refugee Law and Human Rights module, 32 % in the Country of Origin Information module and 22 % in the Drafting and Decision Making module.

• In 2014 two participants completed EASO’s train-the-trainers’ sessions. One participant was trained to become a national trainer in the Interview Techniques module, while the second participant was trained to become a national trainer in the Inclusion module.

• Between 2010 and 2014, nine participants from the Czech Republic attended train-the-trainers’ sessions.

• The multiplier effect in the Czech Republic can be observed on the basis of the following modules:

ü International Refugee Law and Human Rights, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and five national training sessions with 64 participants;

ü Country of Origin Information, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and five national training sessions with 49 participants;

ü Drafting and Decision Making, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and four national training sessions with 33 participants;

ü Dublin Regulation, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and one national training session with 6 participants.

• Experts nominated by the Czech Republic cover 2 positions in the EASO Training and Expert Pool.

Comments by Member State:In 2014 the main focus with regard to the training of asylum officials in the Czech Republic was placed on inter-nal training and mentoring, mainly because two of EASO´s core modules were being translated into the Czech (and Slovak) language during that period, thus the training was postponed until early 2015 to make use of those newly translated modules.

Comments by Member State:It is noted that the decrease in the number of participants in the EASO Training Curriculum in 2013-2014 was caused by the decrease in the number of case officers employed in the Asylum Unit between 2012 and 2014. In addition, it is important to stress that each case officer has to follow at least one EASO training module each year.

Section II, ProfileofparticipantsfromFinlandintheEASOTrainingCurriculum

Reading example: 78 % of participants registered in national training by Finland performed the task ‘Preparation and undertaking of asylum interviews and hearings’ as reported since July 2013.

Please note that one asylum officer may perform several tasks.

Summary

• Following the initial implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum in Finland in 2011 and 2012 the trend remains stable with over 70 participants trained in national sessions per year in 2013 and 2014.

• In 2014 an increase of 17 % has been observed with regard to the number of national training sessions organised compared to 2013 (seven national training sessions).

• The Evidence Assessment module ranked first in Finland in 2014 (28 participants) followed by the Country of Origin Information module (12 participants) and the Inclusion module (11 participants). The rest of participants has been trained in the Interviewing Vulnerable People module, the Interview-ing Techniques module and the End of Protection module.

• The End of Protection module has been used in national training for the first time in Finland in 2014.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 28 % of the Finnish participants in national training sessions of the EASO Training Curriculum have been trained in the Evidence Assessment module, 24 % in the Inclusion module and 20 % in the Drafting and Decision Making module.

• In 2014 four participants from Finland completed EASO’s train-the-trainers’ sessions. The participants have been trained to become national trainers in the following modules: Module for Managers, Exclu-sion, Dublin III Regulationand Evidence Assessment.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 14 participants from Finland attended train-the-trainers’ sessions and they completed the following modules: Interview Techniques, Drafting and Decision Making, Evidence Assessment, Module for Managers, Interviewing Children, Country of Origin Information, Dublin Reg-ulation, Interviewing Vulnerable Persons, End of Protection and Exclusion.

• The multiplier effect in Finland can be observed on the basis of the following modules:

ü Interviewing Techniques, with three participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and 5 national training sessions with 67 participants;

ü Drafting and Decision Making, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and seven national training sessions with 83 participants;

ü Evidence Assessment, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and four national training sessions with 112 participants;

ü Country of Origin Information, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and two national training sessions with 24 participants;

ü Interviewing Vulnerable Persons, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and two national training sessions with 18 participants;

ü End of Protection, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and one national training session with 5 participants.

• In terms of the profile of participants in the EASO Training Curriculum, it is noted that 94 % of trainees are responsible for drafting decisions on international protection. In addition, 78 % of them interview applicants for international protection and analyse facts and/or documentation following an asylum interview.

• Experts and trainers nominated by Finland cover 9 positions in the EASO Training and Expert Pool.

144 — EASO — ANNUAL TRAINING REPORT 2014

Summary

• Following the initial implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum in Luxembourg in 2012 and 2013, in 2014 11 participants completed EASO training. In 2014 one national training session has been organised in Luxembourg (stable compared to 2013). The session was organised in the Interviewing Vulnerable Persons module and 11 participants were trained.

• The Interviewing Vulnerable Persons module has been used for the first time in Luxembourg in 2014.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 30 % of the participants from Luxembourg in national sessions of the EASO Training Curriculum have been trained in the Inclusion module, 23 % in the Country of Origin Informa-tion module and 21 % in the Interviewing Vulnerable Persons module.

• In 2014 two participants completed EASO’s train-the-trainers’ sessions (stable compared to 2013). The participants have been trained to become national trainers in the Dublin III Regulation module and the Evidence Assessment module.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 13 participants from Luxembourg attended train-the-trainers’ sessions.

• The multiplier effect in Luxembourg can be observed on the basis of the following modules:

ü Inclusion, with four participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and one national training session with 16 participants;

ü Country of Origin Information, with three participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and one national training session with 12 participants;

ü Interviewing Vulnerable Persons, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and one national training session with 11 participants;

ü Interview Techniques, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and one national training session with eight participants.

Section II, Profile of participants from Netherlands in the EASO TrainingCurriculum

Reading example: 93 % of participants registered in national training by Netherlands performed the task ‘Prepa-ration and undertaking of asylum interviews and hearings’ as reported since July 2013.

Please note that one asylum officer may perform several tasks.

Data Sample:

- Reporting period: July 2013 – December 2014- 508 participants in national training in Netherlands, including data regarding tasks performed- 45 national training sessions- Modules: Common European Asylum System, Inclusion, Exclusion, End of Protection, Interview Techniques,

Interviewing Children, Interviewing Vulnerable Persons, Evidence Assessment

Comments by Member State:In the Netherlands there is no distinction between ‘asylum officers’ and ‘senior asylum officers’ in the subscrip-tion for national training courses as it is administratively burdensome. However, senior asylum officers, making up the last category, are also joining national training courses. Senior asylum officers are responsible for ‘super-vision/review of other caseworkers’ asylum decisions’.

EASO — ANNUAL TRAINING REPORT 2014 — 177

Summary

• The trend in the implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum in Romania has varied over time. While in 2012, 40 participants were trained in the EASO training modules, in 2013 this number decreased to five and in 2014 it increased to 36 participants (+620 % compared to 2013).

• In 2014 two national training sessions have been organised in Romania (+100 % compared to 2013).

• The Interviewing Vulnerable Persons and Country of Origin Information modules ranked both first in Romania in 2014 (18 participants each).

• The Interviewing Vulnerable Persons has been used for the first time in Romania in 2014.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 47 % of the participants from Romania in national sessions of the EASO Training Curriculum have been trained in the Country of Origin Information module, 19 % in the Draft-ing and Decision Making module and 16 % in the Inclusion module.

• In 2014 no participants from Romania completed EASO’s train-the-trainers’ sessions.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 13 Romanian participants attended train-the-trainers’ sessions.

• The multiplier effect in Romania can be observed on the basis of the following modules:

ü Inclusion, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and one national training session with 21 participants;

ü Interviewing Vulnerable Persons, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and one national training session with 18 participants;

ü Dublin III Regulation, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and one national training session with five participants;

ü Country of Origin Information, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and four national training sessions with 60 participants;

ü Drafting and Decision Making, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and one national training session with 25 participants.

• In terms of the profile of participants in the EASO Training Curriculum, it is noted that 72 % of the trainees are responsible for undertaking first fact-gathering interview/registration/screening/referral of incoming cases. In addition, 64 % of the participants analyse facts and documentation following an asylum interview and 58 % interview applicants for international protection.

• Experts and trainers nominated by Romania cover 11 positions in the EASO Training and Expert Pool.

• The trend in the implementation of the EASO Training Curriculum in Slovakia has varied since 2010, with a significant increase observed in 2014.

• In 2014 three national training sessions have been organised in Slovakia (no training session in 2013). During these three sessions 28 participants have been trained (no participants in 2013).

• The Interviewing Vulnerable Persons module ranked first in Slovakia in 2014 (25 participants) followed by the Interviewing Children module (3 participants).

• The Interviewing Vulnerable Persons and Interviewing Children modules have been used for the first time in Slovakia in 2014.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 31 % of the Slovak participants in national sessions of the EASO Training Cur-riculum have been trained in the Interviewing Vulnerable Persons module, and 23 % in the EU Asylum Law and Policy module.

• Between 2010 and 2014, 17 Slovakian participants attended train-the-trainers’ sessions.

• The multiplier effect in Slovakia can be observed on the basis of the following modules:

ü EU Asylum Law and Policy (currently: Common European Asylum System), with six participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and one national training ses-sion with 18 participants;

ü Interviewing Vulnerable Persons, with two participants trained in train-the-trainers’ sessions to become national trainers and two national training sessions with 25 participants;

ü Interviewing Children, with one participant trained in train-the-trainers’ session to become a national trainer and one national training session with three participants.

• In terms of the profile of participants in the EASO Training Curriculum, it is noted that 79 % of the trainees are responsible for interviewing applicants for international protection. In addition, 71 % of the participants draft decisions on international protection.
