Training course “Level Up Your Youth Work”

WHAT?

Level Up Your Youth Work is a training programme that offers training for youth trainers who want to learn how to design and deliver high quality non-formal education programmes for youth.

We believe that non-formal education (NFE) is a powerful method, which enables bringing various current topics and working with young people in an engaging and attractive way. Many topics that need to be addressed in the current society are not part of school curriculum and NFE and youth work therefore plays an important role in filling those gaps. Yet, many youth workers and youth trainers often start simply by practice with a missing understanding of the basic principles of working with young people.
