The main goals were to develop our NGO education staff in training development and facilitation skills, digital competences, communications, and digital media literacy and to support in the modernization of infrastructure for digital education and development of NGO sector. Important goal was also to integrate the competences and experiences acquired by our staff participating in the project into the strategic development of our program design, through widening opportunities of learning practice within the organisation, improving our educational offers for NGOs, and strengthening training development skills in our organisation so that NIOK could improve its educational programs targeting adult learning. On the practical level we aimed to increase the following knowledge and skills of our staff: how to design and deliver training for NGOs how to better support nonprofits on their digital transformation journey improve their learning methods and educational content of trainings related to combating shrinking civil space, building effective communications strategy and digital transformation learn good practices from peers in other countries
As ICT needs and pressing civil sector issues are changing instantly, we believe that continuous amendment and an ongoing learning process is necessary to keep the skills updated and reflecting the most relevant needs of the social sector. Nonprofit Information and Training Center Foundation (NIOK) is one of the leading organisations in “Tech for Social Good” sector in Hungary in which we believe that we can change the world for better with the widespread use of technology. To facilitate digital transformation and development ICT usage among CSOs we are constantly open and eager to strengthen our internal capacities. As an increasing number of our team members take part in our educational activities and we experience an increase in demand for our learning programmes we wanted to equip our staff with competencies to deliver quality and innovative adult education programmes to learners from NGOs.
