Successful Youth Exchange: the Nuts and Bolts
Training Course
11-14 May 2015 | Derry (Northern Ireland), United Kingdom
This flash workshop gives newcomers in the field of Erasmus+ and especially Key action 1, (YOUTH EXCHANGES) an insight into how to set up a high quality youth exchange for and together with young people.
The aim of the Flash workshops is to provide short and sharp information sessions to potential beneficiaries of the new Erasmus+ programme. The theme chosen by the UK is Youth Exchanges (Key Action 1).
A trainer team from the UK and the Netherlands will prepare a 3.5 day workshop for 20 participants. They will create a coaching programme on key aspects of Youth Exchanges, and address how newcomers to Erasmus+ can get involved in the programme.
Examples of topics to be addressed are:
- Comprehensive information on Erasmus+ programme and activities for young people
- Tools to set up a youth exchange
- Modes of active participation
- Intercultural competences
- The impact and added value of a Youth Exchange
- Good practice - case studies
- Meet possible partners
- Overcoming the "fear" of applications paperwork
AIM:
To better equip participants to be able to organise a successful youth exchange.
OBJECTIVES:
- to discover the possibilities offered by Key Action 1 under Erasmus+ (youth mobilities)
- to master the “tricks of the trade” related to setting up a youth exchange

- to encourage new international partnerships among participants
