What is it about?
Something Fresh is an advanced & highly practical training course on guiding other people – through facilitation, training, coaching and peer-to-peer learning.
YMCA Romania has 4 participants, 2 with fewer opportunities with ages between 23-28.
What is the target group?
As this will be an intense and advanced course, we would like to have people who work with people on a daily basis and would like to improve themselves and their ability to create & facilitate learning processes. Ideally, these people are working with facilitation, training, coaching, mentoring, but it will also be fitting for people working with teams in other settings too. What is a non-negotiable criterion is that they have experienced non-formal education programs personally, are committed to this program and have a clear idea of how they would like to apply their learnings in their work/volunteering.
