Adviser's appreciation
These are the tasks that Mr Diaz Leon performed during his in service traineeship:
1. Uploading documents and organising the available information for the annual programmes country files the Unit has in
the common drive: ("Knowledge Centre"),
2. Updating and completing overview documents on programming and implementation by Member States, as part of the
preparation for the drafting of the mid term evaluation reports on the External Borders Fund (EBF) and the Return Fund
(RF);
3. Updating the information on the projects under direct centralised management programmed in the common drive of the
Unit (tables and programme information 2010 and 2011);
4. Assisting the directct management team through preparatory work on the evaluation and selection of projects and
subsequent communication to the beneficiaries (e.g acknowledgment letters);
5. Uploading documents for the Committee in "CIRCA" and supporting the secretariat of the Committee with the
organisation of the meetings, distribution of documents and preparation of the minutes.
6. Doing conceptual work, such as the drafting of templates for decisions
Mr Diaz Leon's contribution has been welcome in a period of high workload. He understood the context of the tasks and
was able to carry out his tasks quite independently. He was very willing to take up a variety of tasks to learn about the
different aspects of the Unit's work (shared management, direct management, communication with beneficiaries) and
demonstrated his capacity to deliver results within a short deadline.
