Title: TALE (Trainers for Active Learning in Europe): 3rd Steering group meeting. 
Description: BACKGROUND INFORMATION

In 2007, the Youth-Partnership between the Council of Europe and the European Commission decided to develop a new generic Training Course for Trainers at advanced level. This Training for Trainers is a Youth-Partnership activity run together by the Council of Europe, the European Commission and its partners (NAs and SALTO networks), in co-operation with the European Youth Forum. This Training Course should constitute the first step towards the creation of a co-ordinated approach of training trainers in Europe. The organisation of this Training Course will benefit from an important institutional recognition from all stakeholders.

The name of this long-term Training Course is TALE (''Trainers for Active Learning in Europe'').

The preparation and design phase of the Training Course started in 2008, while the implementation is foreseen in 2009-2010. Two Steering Group meetings (April and September 2008) gathering the representatives of the main stakeholders involved in the project set the political objectives of the Training Course, its target group, its scope and a draft timeline for implementation.

A third Steering Group meeting will aim at further defining the implementation strategy of the Training for Trainers.

OBJECTIVES

The 3rd Steering Group meeting scheduled in February 2009 aims to, amongst others:
• exchange views on the curriculum developed by the Course team so far;
• further define the assessment strategy of the Training Course;
• further define the evaluation strategy of the Training Course;
• discuss possible links between the Training Course and youth policy/youth research;
• meet the Course team in a Joint Meeting (10 February) to discuss issues of common interest.

N.B: this meeting is strictly reserved for invited Steering Group members only. It is NOT OPEN to external participants.
