POSTPONED! European Solidarity Corps: TOSCA

Objectives and benefits of the training course

• Foster understanding, awareness and commitment to core quality criteria of the European Solidarity Corps
• Build up competences on how to design and implement European Solidarity Corps projects with a view to quality
• Ensure clarity and support on how the programme works formally: opportunities, guidelines, structures, priorities, rules, and procedures

• Foster a supportive community of organisations involved in the European Solidarity Corps
• Awaken the learner within

Part of the course is an obligatory online preparatory phase:

Before the residential training course in Germany, there is a mandatory online preparatory/introductory phase. It aims to introduce basic information in order to establish common grounds as well as provide  a place where participants will start to form a community of learners and will carry out first homework and assessments of their own organisation, local community and own needs.

We are looking for participants who:

• are involved in the Volunteering Actions in European Solidarity Corps Programme
• are connected to organisations/institutions holding a Quality Label for Volunteering (or an accreditation for Volunteering in Erasmus+).
• have a crucial role in and commitment to
  • providing conditions for high quality activities
  • ensuring a positive impact of  Volunteering Activities within their community
  • creating learning opportunities within the organisation and for volunteers
