Members from Career Disha Nepal had travelled all the way to Portugal in March this year (2018). There we learnt a lot amongst other, about how to hold workshops and to plan an effective scheduling focused on youth workers. We tried out all that we learnt in the 5 days ‘Career Helper Training’. We have consequently listed out the major 5 aspects we learnt from the ‘successful’+ training. (+we found that out through the reflective sessions)
- 1. Stay close to the context and stay focused
- 2. The training members should get to know each other
- 3. Make it FUN
- 4. Move on to practical real-life examples after the theoretical knowledge if possible
- 5. Reflect upon the training at the end of the day
Make sure that the training is well planned, written & documented and the plan is shared among the trainees.
Create a lot of team building games. Be certain that the trainees know each other’s names and understand their organizations closely.
Recognize if the audience is getting bored and when they are, use related games and energizers to spice up the learning technique.
Make sure that the youth-centred-trainings explain the direct practical benefits and use the training time, through various methods, to actually show how to use the learning in real life.
Make sure that the trainees get ample time to reflect on what they have learnt. It can be done in a group at the end of each of the training session.
