The British Academy for Training and Development offers a course on lobbying in the European Parliament. Lobby groups are organizations formed or joined by individuals or groups in society to influence public policy on specific issues that are of common interest to them. Political literature often defines lobbying groups as "organizations that influence decision-makers" by pressuring the government for concessions, or even direct or indirect support from the government.

This course provides practical training within the institutions of the European Union, focusing on lobbying and exerting influence. Additionally, participants will have the opportunity to visit the European Parliament with a private guide, which will be crucial for gaining a comprehensive understanding of both the overall picture and the practical details.
