About the Training Course
The training course “Chess in Primary Education” is primarily aimed at teachers in primary education and students of pedagogical departments. It is also open to any chess tutor interested in training related to the contribution of chess to education.


Academic Certificate and ECTS Points
The course will provide an academic certificate and ECTS points. The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) is a tool of the European Higher Education Area for making studies and courses more transparent. It helps students to move between countries and to have their academic qualifications and study periods abroad recognized by the state systems.
Professor Katerina T. Frantzi, coordinator of the course, and ECU President Zurab Asmaiparashvili signed the agreement that opens the door for the recognition of academic qualifications to teach chess in schools.
