How to become an EJO4Youth Trainer
Welcome to the EJO4Youth Learning Course!
Introduction
Welcome to the EJO4Youth training! This is a learning course with a hybrid approach, combining learning in the institutions and organisations themselves, and distance learning, including self-learning.
Learning Objectives
The units cover various learning aims, including:
- understand the benefits and advantages of Symbolwork
- understand effective and constructive counselling
- become familiar with the Symbolwork toolset and materials
- learn more about different counselling approaches using Symbolwork
- improve the skills necessary for an effective and sustainable counselling session
Please refer to each unit for its specific learning goals and content.
How it works
The programme consists of nine different units. Each module is organised in sequential lessons, each of them with specific learning goals. For this reason, it is important that to not miss any lessons.
Note that this is a blended learning course. Thus, there are online units, as well as face-to-face units. Only in the face-to-face setting will you be able to feel the power of symbols, features of the method and become effectively familiar with the physical tools. That’s why face-to-face lesson are mandatory.
In the online lessons we’ll present you with the learning aims at the beginning of each session, so that you can correctly focus your learning. In each lesson you will have a multimedia resource, a written resource, and some action exercises to make the most of each learning step.
Your Role
As a blended learning trainee, you are expected to have a highly active role on your online learning process. You have to make the most of your proactivity! That means keeping up with:
- Time Management;
- Managing your learning priorities;
- Personal organisation;
- Commitment;
- Self-motivation; and
- Solution seeking to any difficulties that may arise in the process
This will be determinant factors for your success in this learning and certification process.
The assessment and certification of the blended-learning course is based on the attendance of the lessons, whether online or face-to-face, and the final assessment. Once all units are completed, a certificate will be granted to become an EJO4Youth trainer!
