In 2022, Egyesek Youth Association in cooperation with INEX-SDA (Czech Republic) and Solidarites Jeunesses (France) is bringing you 4 personal development trainings, co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme. These trainings are 9-days personal development training courses for those already guiding either groups or volunteers, who want to improve their performance, based upon the principles of self-awareness, resourcefulness and accountability.

The main methodology used will be personal development or self-reflection, which means that we will be focusing mainly on your mindset/attitudes rather than providing you practical skills or models.

Dates of the next training: 11-21 October, 2022
Location: Creative Space – Hungary, Hollókő

The training is here for you to

1. Reflect on your mindset: attitudes, values, and beliefs
2. Realize how your mindset influences your behaviors, the results you get, and the relationships you have with other people in your working context
3. Acquire models and tools to align yourself with your core values, while being more inclusive towards others and unexpected situations
4. Put your experience into practice and exchange best practices with other participants

The training is intended for participants, who

• have experience in leading workcamps or other types of projects involving groups or volunteers
• will lead a project involving young people in 2022
• are at least 18 years and able to communicate easily in English
• want to develop themselves by reflecting on their mindset and how they usually function
• will participate fully in the program from the beginning till the end.

Built-up of the program

1. Self-Reflection (Day 1 to 5)
   You will have the opportunity to getter a better understanding of your mindset and its core elements (beliefs, concepts, automatic behaviors) 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 when it comes to your mindset. Input, activities, and reflection spaces will be there to guide you on this exploration.
2. Submersion/Real life implementation/Outdoor (Day 5 to 8)
   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.
3. Final steps (Day 8 & 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.
