Training networks

Thanks to its conviction that sharing professional knowledge and practices is the only way to guarantee the effectiveness of a judicial system, the enm is involved in several european and international training networks. with its experience and privileged position as a founder member, it is able to inject a dynamic momentum centred on exchanges and mutual trust. these networks are a way of promoting continental law and spreading awareness of the french model for training judges and prosecutors. the joint reflection that takes place within these networks has led to the establishment of international standards for judicial training

The European Judicial Training Network (EJTN)

The ENM is a founder member of the EJTN, which was set up in 2000 and includes all the judicial training institutes of the 27 Member States of the European Union.

It also regularly creates spaces for exchanges between serving and trainee judges and prosecutors with a view to developing a shared European judicial culture.
The ENM chaired the network's Steering Committee between 2014 and 2019. Each year, about fifty in-service training sessions for French judges and prosecutors are also open to their European colleagues.

Today the network has 13 member countries: Algeria, Belgium, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Spain, France, Italy, Jordan, Kuwait, Morocco, Palestine, the Netherlands and Romania.
