The workshops were attended by 67 delegates - again, most of them FENet members. The workshops started with a plenary joint workshop on DLE and E&D. In the afternoon there were three parallel sessions on DLE, MPA and PSO, continuing on the morning session of the second day and a plenary session with summary reports and discussions from each Workshop Chairman.
