The aim of this module is to prepare future trainers and assessors working in the context of EUAA training.

This module focuses on the progressive development of practical training skills during the initial phase of face-to-face (F2F) training, building upon the knowledge acquired in the online segment. Participants engage in practical scenarios designed to address typical challenges encountered by EUAA trainers. In the subsequent part of the F2F training, the module shifts its focus to refining learners' assessment skills. This section provides a thorough analysis and practical experience concerning the roles of trainers and assessors in the learning process. Emphasis is placed on constructing grading scales, validating skills, and delivering effective feedback. Throughout the program, a consistent crosscutting focus is maintained on a learner-centered approach and the quality assurance of training and assessment processes. The module also incorporates online self-paced learning components aimed at building knowledge in didactics, adult learning, and a learner-centered approach.
