CEA is a 5–day training session that is both a theoretical and hands–on experience in e-governance. It provides creative techniques for innovative practices and solutions. CEA includes seminar, interactive sessions, practical workshops (hackathon, teamlab, and pitching sessions).

This year, the lecturers will include globally acclaimed experts, including Marco Steinberg (on designing processes and products for societies and cities), Myrsini Glinos (a platform for government agencies to co–create user–driven services), Markko Karu (design’s role in an enterprise) and others.

CEA offers a dialogue platform for the public sector, the business community (IT–businesses, start–ups, etc.) and creatives, with the aim to consider the factors stimulating innovation in the e–governance. For businesses and creatives, CEA provides insight into public sectors expectations and requirements in ordering e–products or e–services. CEA offers an opportunity to develop ideas into e–products and e–services by professional coaching throughout the academy. This May, CEA will highlight the good practices from the Nordic countries and Estonia and with experts focus on latest trends and developments in e–governance.
