<< Background >>Because of the COVID-19 pandemic adult education has been faced with many new challenges. In most cases, training services have started to be offered on-line - this applies not only to the partner countries but to the whole of Europe. A huge part of the professional and private activity has moved to the Internet 42% of NGOs see the need to raise competencies related to the use of new technologies in their organisations. Employees wanting to keep their NGOs alive during a pandemic very often upset the balance between online and offline work, which can lead to ineffective teaching on the one hand and professional burnout on the other. The competence for distance teaching is not only about the competence of transferring knowledge utilizing new technologies, but also a set of specific soft competencies, which serve the purpose of proper organization of the online work, information retrieval and which also protect the trainer from professional burnout.<< Objectives >>The main direct target group of the project is adult trainers of organizations, educators (40-65 years old), especially NGOs, all 3rd sectors, social companies, social entrepreneurship, social cooperatives, foundations, local clubs, which have not enough money to invest in this type of training, but are forced to introduce one-line classes as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. But benefits of our project will be addressed also to institutions providing adult education and adult learners. The long-term goal of the project is to better prepare trainers from NGOs to conduct remote education with adults, as well as to improve their digital well-being, which will result in more effective work in an online environment.The operational objectives of the project are: -Increase the knowledge of adult trainers about online information management-Increase the competencies of adult trainers how to check online information credibility- Increase the knowledge of adult trainers about tools for checking online news & moderating online time-Equip adult trainers with methods, tools of information management & recognition, ready to use training program about information overload<< Implementation >>During the project we will organize: - One edition of pilot training for @Academy in each partner country – with 60 participants in total.

The main aim of the project was the writing, publication, translation and exhaustive dissemination of the Youth Emotional Management Guide. This guide is a useful tool, so that youth workers could improve the competences needed in the emotional work towards their learners, giving pedagogical guidelines on active listening, emotional discharge and other strategies to work with young groups about the oppressions and mistreatment they receive and that are perpetuated by them. A teaching unit was also writing collaboratively to offer specific activities to organisations wishing to work with groups about this topic.Through the dissemination of the project´s results (the 3 versions of the guide and the teaching unit, both published in Czech, Spanish and Estonian) and the summary video of the conferences where the results will be presented) we would like to improve the quality of youth work, through capacity building on emotional management.The innovative and participative design of these two years project also provided a decisive strengthening of the professional skills, for the staff of the three participating organisations (Sokratovské rozhovory z.s, Permacultura Cantabria,EESTI PEOPLE TO PEOPLE). This strengthening was especially important, with regard to the emotional management in the youth work and non-formal educational framework, the employment of ITCs and the linguistic competences. Thus, they could, in turn, improve the quality of their daily youth work as well as their teaching and the learning of the young people with whom they interact.The specific goals of this partnership were:-Bestow the basic emotional management tools for non-formal education on youth workers.-To raise awareness, among those relevant agents in the educational decision-making, of the relevance of the emotional issues, in order to achieve an education of quality.-Introducing innovative improvements, related to the emotional management in youth training, with the consequent direct impact in the learning quality of the young people, their inclusive education and their future employability.-Broadening the knowledge about emotional management of the participating organisations, by means of online and on-site networking.-Laying the foundations for other future long-term collective projects in the emotional field.The main activities comprised in the Project included: (a) the realisation of three transnationals meetings (two were organised online), in which the representatives of the participating organisations reviewed the working plan and evaluated the project until that moment; (b) the joint online writing, publication and dissemination of the Youth Emotional Management Guide and the Teaching Unit on Emotional Management for Youth Workers, by all the participating organisations; (c) on-site conferences with different stakeholders relevant for educational decision-making, in each of the three participating countries that enhanced the results dissemination. After the conferences, the educational challenges identified were further addressed through teamwork.Long-term impact for the participating organisations included a greater confidence of our youth workers and trainers, to face the challenge of emotional education, a high-quality education, from the point of view of inclusion, academic and professional success, as well as the social and personal integrity of their learners. In addition, contacts were shared during the project, contributing to the creation of a transnational net of organisations interested in the emotional education, which, at the same time, could end up in future projects.Through the dissemination of the outcomes, the partners were also informing and persuading key educational stakeholders, so that the emotional issues were, definitely, taken into account, in all educational aspects (from youth work practice, to educational legislation). Thus, the organisations, that participate in the project, had also a greater European involvement, widening the influence of their role, as key actors, creating connections between different stakeholders, in the field of education.
