In March 1999, the Ministry of Justice, the Association of Judges in Bulgaria, and the Alliance for Legal Interacion formed the Magistrates Training Center (MTC) — the only specialized training entity providing continuing legal education for new and sitting judges. USAID provided technical support, including management and administrative assistance, training of a cadre of judicial educators, and developing and implementing a comprehensive program of course offerings for judges and judicial staff. In 2003 the MTC was succeeded by the National Institute of Justice created by statue via the Judicial System Act in 2002.
