The objective of the “Analytical Thinking” training was to develop skills on how to identify argumentation errors and cognitive dissonance in written and oral communication. The training was organized, on a fee basis, between 2-3 June 2022, by the National Institute of Justice on the request of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industry.
The participants - representatives of the Ministry - were trained by Diana Vrabie, NIJ trainer and trainer at the "Nicolae Dumitrescu" Academy. The agenda of the course included several topics as: critical thinking and constructive thought patterns, illusions and cognitive dissonances, reasoning skills and analyzing own errors. The training sessions were practical and with a complex approach of theoretical concepts alternated with real life examples.
We mention that the National Institute of Justice ensures the initial and continuous training on a contractual basis, in the cases settled by the legislation, providing training on the request of the institutions for professions related to the justice system.
