Multi-month Training 'Kompetenz International'

Multi-month training program

In this multi-month training program, IBG offers practice-oriented knowledge with a focus on leading and coordinating international teams and global learning.

The sensitization through 'Kompetenz International' is helping me a lot professionally, especially when conducting seminars, but also through various methods that I have learned here. The program gave me a lot more security when it comes to group leadership. In general, I find it easier to work in a group, especially in a university context.

Goals and content

In international youth and volunteering projects, participants apply and test knowledge, reflect and develop their individual strengths and skills. The individual building blocks of INSPIRIT are designed so that the focus is on learning from and with each other.

Parts of the training series take place in English, others in German. The trainers are active youth workers in non-profit organizations for international youth work and well trained in working in international structures and networks.

The training course starts with an introduction with an individual definition of each participant's learning goals. At the end of the course, participants conculde with an analysis of the competences acquired and a transfer of experience in the context of multiplication events.

Successful participation is certified in a certificate stating the competencies. Participation should include all building blocks. There are a number of offers and free places for module 3; the selection is made after mutual agreement and availability.
