Main aim
To improve our educational impacts through experiencing a non-formal educational (NFE) process
Why this Training Course?
To stimulate the participants to feel and reflect about the power of non-formal education (NFE) by experiencing different educational methods.
To broaden our perception of NFE and its potential impacts in our different realities in Europe.
To explore the complementarity between formal and non-formal educational sector.
To affirm the political dimension of non-formal education, as a way to take an active role in society (empowerment process).
To reconsider our daily educational work practices, identify our challenges in order to improve the coherence between values we promote and our daily actions.

The TC is not limited to the five days the participants spend together but starts before the actual encounter. Participants should therefore be well aware that they will be actively involved from the very beginning.

A fundamental flow during the training
Experiencing: different educational settings, different methods (role play, simulation activity, exercises...).
Reflecting: on the methods and its impacts, on the power and limits of NFE, on building a pedagogical process…

Sharing: different perceptions, current situations and experiences.
Developing: the building capacity of the participants, by including them in the decision process of the project designing (participants will decide some sessions they feel they need to have) but also in the implementation of the program (“Power to the People – the People who are you” moments).
