Abstract

The article shows the importance of the judicial training as it is perceived by the Council of Europe’s bodies, i.e. as a prerequisite of a judicial independence. This issue has been raised in several documents issued e.g. by the Consultative Council of the European Judges (CCJE) and the European Commission of Democracy through Law (Venice Commission). It has also been stressed in the Recommendations of the Committee of Ministers and mentioned by the United Nations. The quality of the prosecutorial trainings is of no less importance.
