You are a new trainer?

Are you interested to become a trainer in the youth field and list yourself in the TOY database?

Who is in TOY?

TOY is for experienced international trainers from the youth (work) field. Therefore we request a minimum of 3 international training references.

There are different ways to become active in the youth work training field and get the 3 training references you need to be listed in TOY:

Start as a junior trainer or trainee.
Ask your Erasmus+ Youth in Action national agency if they need a (junior) trainer.
Be a trainer on an international training activity of your youth NGO.
Organise your own training course within Erasmus+ Youth in Action (Key Action 1).

Once you have 3 international training references, you can create your TOY profile.

Make sure your references are international (participants from different countries)
It should be training courses or seminars (no camps, no youth exchanges, ...)
They should use non-formal learning, interactive methods (no school activities)
You should work on them as a full time trainer (not just doing a session here and there)
The activity should last minimum 3 full days - preferably residential (so you steer a group and learning for a longer period of time)
