بناء قدرات الشباب في العمل الاجتماعي التنموي: تدريب المدربين

The ToT aimed at enabling young professionals in the field of social work in Qatar to:

1. Understand the different training types and the experiential learning cycle.
2. Acquire techniques to enhance the participation of trainees.
3. Highlight the basic qualities, principles, and behaviours that trainers must adopt to improve the effectiveness of training.
4. Enhance the communication and facilitation skills needed to deliver a training.
5. Learn how to design a training workshop and develop a lesson plan for each session.
6. Assess the extent to which the training workshop achieved the desired learning objectives.

The ToT culminated in a number of overall recommendations for enhancing youth participation in social work:

• Spread the ToT program over a longer duration that allows for more opportunities to practice and give feedback for each participant to develop their skills and accompany them in future trainings.
• Organize one-on-one coaching and follow-up from expert trainers to provide support in session design and feedback during the sessions, in addition to working directly on skills improvement as requested by the trainees.
• Facilitate the establishment of a support and learning circle between the trainees in order to assist each other when preparing and delivering trainings. This can be in the form of pairing / matching them to assist each other and give feedback when designing and delivering a training, or by allowing a participant to shadow another trainer.
