Call for NCs to host T4ET 2015 Dear friends, Trainings for EYP Trainers are a core element in EYP’s long-term strategy, contributing to the development of our alumni and ultimately assisting the enhancement of their educational experience, increasing the quality of events and transforming EYP into a training-based organisation. After four successful T4ETs – Training for EYP Trainers in Finland (2010), Latvia (2011), Ukraine (2012) and Estonia (2014) we are now looking for our host for 2015! It is our aim to have as many interested and motivated EYPers attend this event as possible. For this, we need the enthusiasm and dedication of an NC and a few key individuals willing to organise the training course. The organising team will have our full support in all aspects. Moreover, the EYP office in Berlin can assist the organising team with applications for funding (past events have been successfully funded through Erasmus+).
. You should consider this if you: • • • •
are interested in supporting the idea of training young minds could use more input from outside have something you would like to share have dedicated alumni who would like to try themselves at organising something different
While the trainers’ team will coordinate content related aspects, creativity from the organising teams regarding evening activities is very welcome. The event is not very demanding to organise, and not more than 3 organisers are sufficient. They will also have the chance to attend various modules of the course. T4ET lasts 8 days and gathers around 20 participants, past T4ETs have taken place in July - August, but we are flexible on the dates, provided the time slot finally decided upon is convenient for most alumni (i.e. during holidays).
We are looking forward to your ideas on how to make the fifth T4ET the best yet! Anna, Anamaria, Christian, David, Joanna, Lars, Maria and Sebastian Training and Alumni Development Council
