Tools and Practices about recognition of youth work/ non-formal learning
What are the essential youth worker competences needed to work internationally?
Short description:
The first version of the ETS competence model covers 8 competence areas:
1 Facilitating individual and group learning in an enriching environment
2 Designing programmes
3 Organising and managing resources
4 Collaborating successfully in teams
5 Communicating meaningfully with others
6 Displaying intercultural competence
7 Networking and advocating
8 Developing evaluative practices to assess and implement appropriate change
Following the requests from the community of youth work practice, the new version of the model will be amended with the 9th competence area entitled “Being civically engaged” thus recognising the political and civic dimension of youth work and the related competences.
The competence model has been translated in several European languages and has been tested in national and local contexts as well.
