The aim of the training course is to bring together 28 people involved in non-formal education to reflect on challenges of youth employability, by developing communicational skills.
The aim is supported by the following objectives:

The training addresses 28 participants’ need to develop their competences and to multiply the project’s outcomes within their local communities. The main target group is composed of professionals, volunteer youth workers or trainers, all working in the youth sector.
