Sami Sorjonen
I am a Youth worker and Trainer currently living in Jyväskylä, Finland.
My interests range from classic youth work in youth centers to different kinds of ways to do youth work in digital platforms. Youth participation and guiding volunteers are also important to me. Non Formal Education and Non Formal Learning activities are the base of my work as a youth worker and as a trainer.
Quality in Erasmus+ projects are important to me.
Finnished my Training of Trainers (ToT) in July 2022.
Sami Sorjonen has 5 references for past work as a trainer.
