Prof ., PhD,—along with other partner universities of the international project IRO4ALL, took part in a capacity-building training (Task T 2.3) hosted by the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU). The event brought together representatives from 8 partner institutions across 4 countries, including the project coordinator—the Technical University of Moldova, as well as leading European universities and organizations from the Czech Republic, Spain, and Romania. The primary objective of the training was to translate higher education internationalization strategies into practice, as well as to enhance the institutional capacity of international relations offices in Moldovan universities. During the working sessions, participants discussed in detail the draft institutional policies, procedures, and organizational structures developed within Moldovan universities. Special attention was paid to strategic partnerships and comprehensive risk assessment in the development of international academic cooperation. Furthermore, experts from European universities conducted a series of practical sessions aimed at improving skills in preparing, financially managing, and effectively implementing international cooperation projects with EU countries. The acquired practical tools and methodological recommendations will be integrated into CSU's activities to further the university's integration into the European Higher Education Area (EHEA), optimize international processes, and expand academic partnerships
