SEC

The SEC Educational Centers (SEC - the first institution in its region offering informal adult education) primary aim is to serve the educational and training needs of the community by offering quality services to its target groups (adults in general - with low or high level of education, adults disadvantaged for social, economic, cultural reasons). It offers language and computer courses that lead to internationally recognised certificates, organises teacher trainings and tailor made courses for adults and SMEs in different fields (tourism, management, personal development, etc.). Approx. 20% of our students are aged between 50 and 65, however their number is steady increasingly.

SEC supports communities and economic development by long-term European partnerships building with actors from business and non-profit sectors. It also promotes the European spirit and ideas and the full integration of Romania in the EU by implementation of European values in education and developing educational programmes and tools in co-operation with partner institutions from the EU.

SEC would like to participate in ASEC in order to bring closer the issue of active European citizenship to the inhabitants of its region and to citizens from Romania in general. Awareness and positive attitudes towards the EU are very high within young inhabitants, but elderly people are very sceptical and negative towards the EU because they blame it for changes to the worse in their lives. SEC works with 5 full time and 20 part time employees.
