The use of psychodramatic techniques, appear to be capable of providing a valid answer to the majority of problems indicated by the educators, especially those relating to lack of motivation, narrowmindedness, lack of selfesteem and confidence, difficult relations between student and student, and between the class and the educator. The results of the research were presented in a meeting held in Florence in 24th of February. At the meeting, specific training modules on the psychodrama tools used in adult education, were derived connected to existing problems and difficulties in training process. From the reports drafted by the adult educators, it was found that 90% of them use experiential methods in their courses. However, only 33% of educators know

about the applications of psychodrama in education. The most highly valued quality of experiential techniques, are that of motivating and involving students and promoting independence in learning. Within this context, psychodrama tools and techniques, which are valid for improving collaboration among students, and motivating and developing their creativity, seem to be used with considerable benefits in teaching process. Training modules in psychodrama that can help trainers towards managing effectively major difficulties and problems in training process will include: 1.Experiential
methods
of psychodrama. Theoretical module discuss the basics of psychodrama – Knowledge. 2.The power of the group Group theory/dynamics (psychodrama is mostly about group) ex: how to motivating group, there is need of a sort of background Understanding 3.Sociometric group mapping Application 4.Warm up How to warm a group up - concrete technique. 5.The power of playing.

training techniques are used in the implementation of VET training programmes in consortium countries and it also aim to qualify the actual needs of adults educators in order to apply in their educational seminars psychodramatic techniques. The collected data was used to provide reliable information to develop a proficient curriculum. Experts in adult education and certified psychodramatists in each participating country, have been interviewed in order to enrich the existing data for qualifications and skills required for the successful application of psychodrama in adult training programs. From the reports drafted by the adult educators, it was found that 90% of them use experiential methods in their courses and that often the classical frontal methods are not sufficient for developing efficacious, comprehensive lessons for adults. The most highly valued quality of these methods was that of motivating and involving students, and promoting independence in learning. Within this context, the psychodramatic techniques, which are valid for improving collaboration among students, and motivating and developing their creativity, seem to be used with considerable benefits for enhancing the educators' abilities and the teaching method while also helping to overcome the most recurrent problems in classes of adult students.
