Future ready with Powerskills

Aims & objectives

1. 25 youth workers will improve their understanding of 5 power skills (teamwork, communication, conflict and problem management, organisational skills, leadership). They’ll learn min. 5 scientific theories and effective ways to share them with young people using non-formal education.
2. 25 youth workers will add at least 7 new non-formal education activities to their trainers toolbox, focusing on helping disadvantaged young people develop their power skills.
3. By the end of the project, the 25 youth workers will be more confident in teaching power skills, leading to a 25% increase in non-formal education workshops developing power skills across all partner organizations.

Your tasks and responsibilities within the team

I was a co-trainer, facilitating 50 % of the sessions in the training and supporting my colleague in her sessions as as a second facilitator, note-taker or helping hand as needed.

I worked on this training for 6 days as a full time trainer.

Testimonial of the reference person

I had the pleasure of working with Kunka during the Future Ready with Power Skills Training Course. Throughout the project, she demonstrated professionalism, commitment, and a genuine passion for non-formal education.

One of her greatest strengths is her participant-centred approach. She carefully observed the needs of the group and was able to adapt methods, timing, and facilitation style to ensure an engaging and meaningful learning experience for everyone. Her flexibility and calm attitude allowed her to respond effectively to unexpected situations while maintaining a positive group dynamic.

She is an excellent team player who communicates openly, collaborates smoothly with fellow trainers, and contributes valuable ideas during both the planning and implementation phases. Her creativity, strong facilitation skills, and ability to create an inclusive and supportive learning environment were highly appreciated by both the participants and the training team.

I confidently recommend her as a trainer for international learning activities. She is reliable, adaptable, needs-oriented, and dedicated to delivering high-quality educational experiences.
