About us

Who we are & what we do

The Accredited Training Center for Education and Development (ATC) systematically promotes and, under the leadership of Eva Váňová, further develops the Method of Instrumental Awareness (MIA), which has broad application in the educational process. MIA is based on a comprehensive concept that has been proven over many years of practice and can be used as a tool for corrective or intervention procedures and plans, as well as for supporting gifted children and other target groups.
Through MIA, we support education, personal growth, and the deepening of cognitive, emotional, and social skills. We train teachers, school principals, special educators, therapists, psychologists, social workers, and other interested individuals in working with the method. ATC was founded in 2015 and operates throughout the Czech Republic and Slovakia, where our long-term activities in 2020 resulted in the establishment of a branch OZ Myslenie pre život.
