Training 4 Trainers
Start date: Jun 17, 2014, End date: Jan 17, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The project ”Training 4 Trainers” aims to train youth workers to become trainers and provide them with the theory, skills and tools necessary to design implement and evaluate effective training programmes themselves in order to generate optimum learning outcomes and improved performance. The training course will take place in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK in July/August 2014 and will gather 30 youth workers, project coordinators and trainers from 8 European countries: United Kingdom, Croatia, Romania, Spain, Turkey, Poland, Latvia and Bulgaria . It is planned as an intensive 10 day long training course using the method of non-formal education in order to create an appropriate learning environment by focusing on learning by experience, reflection on the past activities of the participants, discussions about the key competencies of youth work and discovering training competencies and methodology. A team of highly competent trainers will implement the activity ensuring that each participant will get adequate learning guidelines and personal mentoring as well. Specific focus of the training will be made on active learning - how to understand it and to promote it when working with young people. There is a lack of competent trainers in the youth field who are able to work on this Erasmus+ programme priority areas - thus the training will directly contribute to the increase of the educational activity and quality youth work done around the dimensions and act of youth work and learning in Europe. The training course will contribute to the development and expansion of a network of trainers and facilitators with the skills and motivation to contribute to the quality and sustainability of the youth programmes in Europe. It will include various types of learning activities and formats to provide the youth workers with considerable flexibility in adapting the educational programmes to the specific needs of participants.
