Details:
In this training course we will go deeper into subjects that are closely linked to the European Voluntary Service (EVS). We hope that this training course will contribute to increase the quality of EVS projects. The methodology used in this training activity is based on experiential learning. The working methods are dynamic, and we hope that you will participate actively.
The main subjects of this training course are:
• Understanding the concept of quality in EVS;
• The learning dimension of volunatry service in EVS;
• How to set up a competent support system around the volunteer;
• The effective international partnership in EVS.
This Participant Info Pack includes:
• A brief presentation of the SOHO European Training Course;
• The day-by-day programme of your course (the programme is flexible and may change!);
• A brief presentation of the European Youth in Action Programme, with a focus on Action 2 – European Voluntary Service – EVS, and the EVS charter. Your National Agency (NA) will inform you about all logistic details regarding your SOHO Training Course.
Target group:
The training course is designed for those who are directly involved in the support system around the EVS volunteer (mentors and task-related support persons) on the hosting, sending and coordinating side. The participants from Sending and Hosting organisations should already have some experience in EVS (minimum of being in the process of sending or hosting a volunteer, better having been
already sending or receiving the first volunteer).
Aim and objectives:
The overall aim of the SOHO TC is:
- To increase the quality of EVS activities through development of competencies (knowledge, skills and attitudes) of key actors involved in the support system around EVS volunteer.
The specific objectives of the course are:
• To get a better understanding of the concept of EVS as “learning service” and related quality aspects in EVS;
• To improve the ability for co-operation and working in international partnership SOHO Info Pack for Participants 5 Version January, 2011;
• To reflect on the roles, responsibilities and challenges within the EVS volunteer support system;
• To raise awareness of the learning dimension in EVS and provide tools for learning support;
• To support the recognition of non formal learning in EVS through the implementation of the Youthpass.
An additional benefit of the training course is the valorisation of EVS through the exchange of best practices and experiences among participants. In the training course participants have the opportunity to meet and to get to know other organisations, but contact making is not directly a priority of the training course.
The programme:
The programme of the SOHO TC is built around four quality aspects relevant to the support system implemented in an EVS project. During the course participants and trainers will analyse the identified quality aspects (concept of EVS – international partnership – learning dimension of EVS – support system) thanks to simulation exercises, case studies, and working groups. Besides, the trainers’ team will provide activities to improve the group dynamics and a final evaluation.
Costs:
This project is financed by the Youth in Action Programme. Being selected for this course, all costs (accommodation, travel, visa, etc.) relevant to participation in the course will be covered by the NAs involved in this project - except a participation fee which varies from call to call and country to country.
