Welcome to the EAP library of video recordings. Our videos are organised chronologically and by event - each event has a page with embedded video recordings. However, you may also search for video recordings by presenter name. In addition, there is a page with video recordings of EAP Officers invited to speak at other professional events or conferences. And there is also a page with interview video recordings to watch and listen to. We hope you will enjoy what our presenters are offering.
