Trainings for EYP Trainers (T4ET) are an integral element to the

development of the organisation, contributing to the development of our

active members and ultimately assisting the enhancement of their

educational experience, increasing the quality of events and

strengthening EYP as a training-based organisation. After five successful

T4ETs, this year’s T4ETs will take place in Greece and in Armenia.

T4ET in Greece

The first training is head-organised by Panagiotis Patikos and Panos Papanagiotou; it will take place in or

around Athens (exact venue to be confirmed) between 22 - 27 August 2016 and gather 25 participants to be

selected by the trainers’ team following individual applications. The 5 trainers (including one head-trainer)

will receive travel reimbursement of min. 150 euros.

T4ET in Armenia

The T4ET in Armenia will take place in Aghveran (40 mins from Yerevan) from 30 September - 5 October

2016. You can check the training venue here. The mountainous town and surrounding beautiful nature make

it ideal for the training and offer great potential for creative methods. This event will involve 30 participants

and 5 - 7 trainers (including one head-trainer). Participants will be selected by the trainers’ team from a pool

of active members nominated by their National Committees. Trainers will receive reimbursement of their

travel fees of up to 300 euros. The project is head-organised by Avnik Melikian.

The head-organisers are supported by EYP Greece and Armenia respectively, the Training and Alumni

Development Council, as well as the EYP International Office.

Call for trainers

The trainings will last 6 days and aim to enable participants from all over Europe to competently and

confidently plan, run and evaluate a high quality training course. Participants will:

Gain a profound understanding on how groups function;

Discover the underlying causational themes of behaviour;

Learn advanced group leading techniques (chairing/facilitation);

Practice strategic use of teambuilding exercises;

Explore how to enable personal growth in one’s team and its individuals;

Investigate learning styles and preferences and how to adapt to them;

Creatively approach new and existing training and facilitation methods;

Practice their leadership, training and chairing competences through self-reflection and feedback

from experienced co-participants and trainers.

The success of the event is highly dependent on the passion of the trainers involved.

Training in a week long residential training course, gathering talented EYPers, like T4ET, is a great learning

experience for trainers; while it is a very demanding and intense, it is also very rewarding, developmental, and

an impressive achievement over all. We encourage all EYPers who are passionate and experienced in training

to apply.

Trainers will be involved in all steps of the preparations, including designing the training programme based on

participants’ and EYP’s needs. They will be required to arrive at the venue one or two days before the start of

the event. Once assembled, the trainers’ team will also decide on the dates for a preparation weekend to take

place as soon as possible after the participants’ selection.

Selection panel and application form

The trainers’ teams will be composed of 5 - 7 trainers, led by an experienced head trainer, and will include at

least one external trainer (not from EYP). We invite all EYPers with training experience to apply for the event.

Participation in a previous T4ET is an advantage, but not a must. The selection panel will be formed of Beata

Veisova (Council representative), Mandy Buschina (on behalf of the International Office of the EYP at the

Schwarzkopf Foundation) and the head-organisers.

All EYPers who are passionate about and experienced in trainings are invited to apply by filling in the

application form by 30 June 2016 at 23h59 CET.
