The goal of this project was to have, more European organizations working with digitalization training producing quality projects, and reaching more youths both within and beyond their organizations, with the possibility of offering digital training to a wider number of NGOs from other partners not partners in this project, creating a ripple effect and potential use of the training modules that have been produced (12 training materials during the 2 mobilities). The objectives of the training activities were: 1. To improve trainer performance through upskilling by sharing best practices 2. To identify the specific needs of individual youth workers and learners and use peer learning by sharing resources to improve their performance and competencies 3. To understand how to use technology to monitor engagement and motivation and to boost self-assessment in education as the digital-based approach by offering self-assessment resources in different fields of non-formal education 4. To provide a low-cost and time-efficient model of CPD 5. To provide in-house CPD which is focused on the individual youth workers/trainer and learner/user needs and competencies 6. Understanding the use of technology for self-evaluation, monitoring of youth workers/trainers and learners' performance, and setting performance management targets 7. To use technology to implement and monitor new approaches to youth non-formal learning 8. To demonstrate how this digital tool can be effective in improving the performance of both youth workers/trainers and their youths 9. To build a network of reliable potential partners; 10. To share knowledge between the youth workers; 11. To discuss potential problems that might occur during training projects and propose solutions; 12. To share management/digital tools.
