The School thus helps ensure the quality of the competitions and strengthen a learning community that extends beyond the tournaments themselves. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #003366;\">In addition, the program offers <strong>practical<\/strong>, <strong>accredited<\/strong> <strong>training<\/strong> organized by CICAE and Camilo Jos\u00e9 Cela University, in collaboration with Train&#038;Talk, which allows participants to join the official panel of judges for the CICAE-UCJC Debate League.<\/span><\/p><p> <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-adc7fb0 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"adc7fb0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The CICAE-UCJC Debate League is not just a competition.
