Antecedent of the Summer Academies is KÖVET’s project named ‘Training for the Future’, which program finished in 2006, but its most important part, the Summer Academy had been organized each year until 2010 in Keszthely, Hungary. In 2010 it was organized in English, and however half of the group, according to the traditions, was Hungarian, 3-3 trainers from the project countries were trained to pass on the knowledge. Languages of the Bulgarian, Romanian and Turkish Summer Academy were the countries’ national languages, and 70% of the training material was the same as the original Hungarian. This is a positive fact, as the training material of the Hungarian ‘Training for the Future’ Summer Academies had been renewed every year in the same proportion.
