Aims & objectives

The training course will make links to the ETS Youth worker Competence Model to work internationally and focuses on tackling the questions:
What are the elements of the “mindset of a youth worker” (in youth mobilities) in order to:
...be an example of a good learner
...make learning a priority
...create a good learning environment
...balance both, group and individual learning needs
...support reflection processes of young people
...ask ‘good’ questions to raise participants' awareness to their ‘hidden’ competences
...support young people to get empowered and express their own learning meaningfully
… and many more questions come up when you work with young people in mobilities!
We want to offer the opportunity to look behind, to reflect and experience our mindsets! Mindsets, we understand in the classical etymological way as ‘habits of mind formed by previous experience’ – see whether ‘we walk the talk’ and ‘which walk do we talk’ and which areas needs reflection, discussion and exchange!
