We have been discussing various teaching strategies, course syllabus and accreditation as part of our Leonardo funded project for nearly a year now. We have trainers from several countries accross Europe involved in our project and from our network. As a result, we thought that we would use our next project meeting and network General Assembly as an opportunity to share some of our learning strategies with you.
We would like to invite you to a half-day workshop entitled ‘Andragogy in Practice’ on Thursday 27th May 2010 in Athlone Institute of Technology (AIT), Athlone, County Westmeath, Ireland. Our trainers will demonstrate examples of learning strategies based on the theme of rural tourism ’train the trainer’ program. This interactive workshop will be delivered in English by experienced trainers from Bulgaria, Ireland, Romania and Switzerland using a range of adult learning strategies.
This workshop is targeted at all trainers involved in delivering programmes to adults and particularly to those in the tourism sector. We want to use this workshop to explore the best case examples of learning strategies which are used by colleagues throughout the EU. This is also an opportunity for trainers to meet likeminded colleagues from different organisations and countries in the field of tourism training.
The workshop will be delivered between 9.00 & 13.00 in AIT and will form part of our RTITN General Assembly and Partnership Project meeting. We are also planning a networking activity in the afternoon for all trainers in the the afternoon and further details will be confirmed here in the coming weeks. There will be no fee for RTITN members and a booking fee will be required from non-members. If you are interested, please in the first instance contact us by commenting on this blog and we will keep you updated about our plans as they are confirmed.
