The main methodology will be personal development or self-reflection, which means that we will focus mainly on your mindset/attitudes rather than providing you with practical skills or models.
The training is here for you to
- Reflect on your mindset: attitudes, values, and beliefs
- Realize how your mindset influences your behaviours, the results you get, and the relationships you have with other people in your working context
- Acquire models and tools to align yourself with your core values, while being more inclusive towards others and unexpected situations
- Put your experience into practice and exchange best practices with other participants
The training is intended for participants, who
- have experience in youth work: staff members and volunteers of youth organizations, youth leaders, mentors of young people
- are at least 18 years old and able to communicate easily in English
- are willing to take part in a challenging program towards self-reflection, to question your first reaction, to take action and to learn something new
- will participate fully in the program from the beginning till the end.
Built-up of the program
- Self-Reflection (Days 1 to 4)
You will have the opportunity to get a better understanding of your mindset and its core elements (beliefs, concepts, automatic behaviours) and how they affect the results you usually obtain in life, and how you work with others. It will be a journey into expanding what works and improving what doesn’t work regarding your mindset. Input, activities, and reflection spaces will be there to guide you on this exploration. - Submersion/Real life implementation/Outdoor (Days 4 to 7)
The best way to put knowledge from theory to application is to practice in a real-life situation or context.
You will have several assignments to complete in the local communities around Nógrád county. You will be able to put into practice the competencies acquired throughout the previous days of the TC. - Final steps (Day 8 to 9)
The last days are there to wrap up the learning experience of the TC, in such a way that the insights can be taken home in a structured manner, to plan follow-up steps, and to close the TC together.
