Structure of seminars and workshops

A typical training programme consists of a series of seminars or workshops with a number of activities per session to transport the training contents in the most effective way using modern didactics.

• Feed back session: The seminar participants will briefly describe the activities undertaken since the last seminar. This guarantees continuous work, control of progress regarding the homework and special topics and measures. It provides as well for a mutual exchange of experiences and a sharing of ideas to solve problems. (In the first bloc of seminars this session will be used to indruduce participants and experts including their expectations.)
• Information block: An expert team introduces into the new main topic as indicated in the work description.
• Interactive phase: In order to foster the understanding of the new topic the participating experts are divided into smaller groups, which should adopt in practise the just learned principles. This interactive phase is supervised by the experts. In this phase an environment is created in which the participants collect real personal experience in the relevant topics and are stimulated to translate their experience into the situation of their own job sites.

• Exercises: The interactive phase will be enriched with classroom exercises or outdoor actiuvities as appropriate to learn from real examples.
• Final discussion: Finally the results are summarised and the relevance and improvement regarding the given topic for each participant are discussed. In some of the seminars special local experts or officials are invited to give short statements and to join the final discussion.
