Learning Needs Analysis

No matter how fantastic our project can be and how important our key roles are,It doesn´t make sense to do something, what is not needed.We don´t want to realize the project for you, we want to do it WITH you! You are people working in the field at various levels of experience and skills. The learning needs analysis helps us to identify where you are in terms of your knowledge, skills and competencies, versus where you wish to be - what are your learning goals? And ideally, before a youth exchange takes place! By conducting a learning needs analysis with all participants, we can identify what programmes are needed and we will be better able to support you.

• For that reason we are eager to know.
• What skills and knowledge you already have?
• What skills/knowledge/competencies do you need to develop?
