training methodology: |
The course is an adaptation of the "Train the trainers" program, prepared and successfully conducted at Jagiellonian University Extension, referring to the fourth level of The Trainer Competences Profile (prepared by JUE and based on European Qualification Framework). It employs an active, student-oriented approach, with specific focus on developing ability to personally conduct training sessions or group meetings, concentrating on the specific goals achievement. Theoretical background is presented in form of short presentations that help understand the basic rules and methods of working with groups. The course emphasizes hands-on practice of the developed skills in numerous training exercises and practice sessions. Part of the training is conducted using action learning methodology, which supports transferring learning results to a specific, professional area related to participants' interests.
