17 November 2025 – With the expansion of Frontex’s mandate, budget and organisation, especially since 2015, the agency’s training infrastructure has also gradually grown. It now includes a plethora of trainings, courses, workshops and exercises for Frontex personnel as well as employees of border authorities of EU member states and, in some cases, third countries in- and outside Europe. Many of these activities take place on ad hoc locations, such as EU external border crossing points (including airports), or online. The new briefing ‘Frontex’s training infrastructure’ [pdf] by the Abolish Frontex Research Group lists permanent Frontex training locations, for its Standing Border Guard Corps trainings, its Partnership Academies network and its Joint Master’s programme.
