 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I attended the Erasmus+ course "Well-Being & Mental Health" from October 24th to 29th. I would like to express a huge thank you (Milan) for handling all the course documentation beforehand. The communication was professional, very kind, and timely. We had the most wonderful, responsive, and inspiring instructor—Dario! On the very first day, we headed to the seaside, where our first session took place. Every day was full of inspiration, and time flew by because it was all so engaging! Dario’s use of language—his pace, tone, and gestures—made it easy to follow along, even if your English isn't perfect. Dario has a unique ability to create an atmosphere where stress and anxiety simply melt away. This course is both inspiring and deeply calming! A wonderful 5 days in Split! Thank you so much!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I loved everything about this Erasmus experience in Split, Croatia! And honestly, my positive impression started even before I arrived. Communication was quick, clear and efficient from the very beginning, whether via email or WhatsApp, which made everything so easy and stress-free.

Once I got there, things turned out to be even better than I had expected. I loved the flexibility of the training sessions, the knowledge and practical ideas we were introduced to, the way the trainers communicated with us, and how thoughtfully the entire programme was organised. Everything felt natural, welcoming and well put together.

It was truly a special experience, one that definitely wasn’t on my 2026 bingo card, but I couldn’t be happier that it happened! I came home with new perspectives, fresh ideas and plenty of things to reflect on. I know that many of the things I learned will gradually find their way into both my professional practice and my everyday life.

What made this experience even more special was the people behind it. You can genuinely feel their passion, dedication and love for what they do. They are wonderful people and committed educators who make you feel welcome, valued and encouraged to learn.

I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone considering an Erasmus course in Split. Don’t hesitate, just go!

I would absolutely love to come back in the future, either for another training course or for a possible collaboration. Some experiences stay with you long after they are over, and this is definitely one of them.

Thank you for everything! ❤️

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From 12–16 October I attended an Erasmus+ teacher training course in Split. It was my first Erasmus + experience, and it exceeded all my expectations.
A huge thank you to our trainer Dario Čaljkušić. His sessions were warm, lively and truly meaningful. Dario created a calm and safe atmosphere where I felt welcome from the very first day. From him I learned the most important lesson: everything should be done lightly, step by step, without rush or stress. During this week I found peace, and I have brought it back to my work with children.
This course also gave me new friends. Meeting colleagues from different countries, our conversations and sharing experiences were incredibly valuable.
I warmly recommend this course to every educator, especially those who feel tired. Thank you, Dario, and the whole Erasmus + Courses Croatia team!
