Courses organised as part of the European Security and Defence College

The ESDC is a training platform within the European External Action Service, organised in the form of a network. It brings together some 120 institutes, colleges, academies and institutions representing the 27 Member States of the European Union. Its mission is to provide training in the field of the EU's Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) in the wider context of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP), to develop and promote a common understanding of these tools among civilian and military personnel, and to identify and disseminate, through its training and teaching activities, good practice in relation to the various defence and security issues.
