Part of the course is an obligatory online preparatory phase:
Before the residential training course in Slovakia, there is a mandatory online preparatory/introductory phase. It aims to introduce basic information in order to establish common grounds as well as provide a place where participants will start to form a community of learners and will carry out first homework and assessments of their own organisation, local community and own needs.
We are looking for participants who:
- are involved in the Volunteering Actions in European Solidarity Corps Programme
- are connected to organisations/institutions holding a Quality Label for Volunteering (or an accreditation for Volunteering in Erasmus+).
- have a crucial role in and commitment to: providing conditions for high quality activities; ensuring a positive impact of Volunteering Activities within their community; creating learning opportunities within the organisation and for volunteers.
