The European Network of Councils for the Judiciary underlines the message of the European Commission in their recent communication on European Judicial Training. The ENCJ stresses that the European Judicial Training Network (EJTN) and the national training institutes are indispensible in reaching the goals set out by the European Commission.  The ENCJ is fully committed to contribute to the ambitions of the Commission and calls upon its Members to support and initiate actions that may add to the judges of Europe becoming European judges. 

On 13 September 2011 the European Commission adopted a Communication titled "Building trust in EU-wide justice - A new dimension to European judicial training" . In it the European Commision sets a goal of training 700.000 legal professionals in EU law by 2020.
