of the EPES site. Currently available translations are English, Spanish, German, Italian and Finn-

ish. Moreover there is a link to news, events and a user registration (intranet) as well as a contact

formular.

Left area: The left side of the site shows the main menus, which are showing links to different

sub-pages.

Bottom area: Project partner logos, Legal notice, sitemap, credits and privacy policy.

The main menu content is structured as follow:

Home (public access)

Project Overview (public access)

Consortium (public access)

Management Structure (public access)
