Being a youth workers is very rewarding, but often not an easy task. It requires not only knowledge regarding the specific thematic area we conduct our activities in, but also many other skills. Unfortunately, even though we do as much as we can to develop them (also by learning from our failures and mistakes), it is not rare that while working with young people, we have seen our shortcoming and things we could have done better. This is why, the idea of the training, that would allow to build and develop skills that are crucial for being an effective youth worker, appeared. In order to enable youth workers to conduct higher standard and more effective non-formal educational activities with young people, it was needed to develop their: - confidence and skills by conducting new, more engaging form of activities, - skills in responding for situations currently foreseen as difficult or challenging, - ability to respond to questions (that are currently often seen as difficult and problematic) in a way that would contribute to develop youth’s critical thinking and interest in a topic; - other skills that are useful for youth workers, which they feel they currently lacking (public speaking, group management, team building, facilitating discussions). The project was linked to the following objectives of Erasmus + for youth workers: - improved competences; - better quality of their work and activities in favour of young people; - increased motivation and satisfaction in their daily work.
