To train your classmates on the topic “European Union and European Institutions”
In the lives of many people, it does not happen to take on the role of a trainer who not only imparts knowledge, but also reaches the participants by motivating and activating them. But each one of us was or is a student. Center “Amalipe” is starting a new initiative, through which, with a series of thematic trainings, we will turn active young people from the Network of schools “Every student will be a winner” of Center “Amalipe” into young trainers. They will lead monthly thematic training on topics that are not only related to the daily life of young people, but also increase their civic activity and awareness.
The first topic with which the start of the initiative is set is “European Union and European institutions”, through which the participants will supplement their knowledge about the structure of the EU, the role of the institutions, as well as how the relevant institutions influence our daily life.
If you are a 10th to 12th grade student and want to gain experience as a young trainer, you can join the initiative of the Amalipe Center by filling out the form HERE.
And you can find out what is needed to conduct a training in the short instructions that the “Amalipe” Center prepared to help young people who want to become motivating trainers, which you can download HERE
An attendance list is also completed for each training, which you can find HERE
Here are some supporting materials (resources) that will help young trainers in conducting training on the topic, through which a training will be not only educational, but also fun:
