About

We have developed the CEF Online Learning Campus (OLC) with a clear vision to support knowledge exchange and experience sharing among South East European finance officials in an online learning environment.

Technology is transforming the way we learn. Therefore, we are integrating new online learning tools into different learning contexts to provide even more opportunities to multiply the outreach and impact of capacity development and change – be it on the personal, institutional, or country level. Through online learning we engage a broad group of stakeholders who wish to learn together and develop timely, customized and cost-effective solutions to reform related challenges.

The community of finance officials is at the heart of the OLC. We are committed to involving them online through watching videos and live streams, taking part in online learning courses, attending webinars, reading and reflecting on blog posts or collaborating in different online discussions. All the online learning initiatives are related to our thematic areas: Public Financial Management, Tax Policy and Administration, Central Banking, Data and Analysis for Designing Policies, and Leadership for Managing Reforms.

We strongly believe that online learning is vital for capacity development. Therefore, we will strengthen our online learning initiatives even further in the upcoming years and offer finance officials the best online learning experience in the SEE region.

Join us now to become part of the CEF online learning community.
