One Training School was held per grant period, targeting both early-career investigators and experienced researchers. Training schools focused on methodological aspects related to the Action’s research tasks and allowed attendees to participate in discussions and debates with international experts on a range of different aspects of social exclusion in later life. Each training school considered different aspects of old-age exclusion and the Actions core research objective and questions.
