In the Train the trainers of immigrant’s project Active Citizens Partnership will be leading the cultural awareness module and the cybercafé module.
The first unit of the cultural awareness module is the “migratory phenomenon”, or “migratory flows”, and what are the consequences of the migratory phenomenon in Europe.
In the module cybercafe the trainers will learn how to use the new technologies in training.
The Second Chance School is the partner in charge of composing a module which will help trainers to deal with the traumatic situations of the learners. It is important to note that a trainer is not a psychologist and should not try to act as one. Nonetheless, they have to bear in mind that their students may have gone through traumatic situations and be prepared for behaviours that may stem from such situation.
Fundacja Ad MERITUM is responsible for 30-hour module of TTT-I course.
