Objectives

The project ˝Hop On - The Train to Trainings˝ was created in the context of youth work and European nonprofit organisations in which we wanted to develop a multidimensional approach to the role of facilitator/trainer, according to the need expressed for this kind of professionals. The idea was that facilitators and trainers have a fundamental role and need specific skills in order to make any kind of youth project they facilitate a successful one. This included specific skills, careful preparation of the logistics in the project, understanding of the needs of the group, manage teams of young people, manage international teams and to create a space of personal and professional growth and learning. The goals of this project was to give this knowledge to 25 youth workers from 8 countries, in order to achieve the objectives of the project – which is youth work in Europe, giving the opportunity to youth worker to become facilitators, improving the recognition of non-formal education and quality of youth projects. This will all be achieved through using methods of non-formal education and experiential learning, supported and guided by experienced youth workers and facilitators.
