GENERAL SETTING OF THE TRAINING COURSE FOR ASPIRING TRAINERS
OBJECTIVES:
The main objective is to offer to a targeted list of people (see TARGET below) an opportunity for growth and exchange on a more extensive basis, aiming to strengthen the network of figures who can help in different ways to promote Baskin culture more effectively in the various territories, and who can make their skills available to all those needing support to start this activity, both in sports and in schools.
TARGET:
The candidates must meet these basic criteria:
_ long-term commitment and dedication to Baskin: recognised experience in the field;
_ enthusiasm and dialectical ability to transmit it: propensity to know how to spread it;
_ pro-social attitude: ability to interact with others in a serene and constructive way;
_ open-mindedness: open attitude in front of the complexity of inclusive culture.
CONTENTS:
The training contents largely follow the structure of the basic training courses for coaches or teachers (Modules 1, 2, 3) but adopting the perspective of those who have to lead these courses. Therefore, the contents must not only be understood but deeply internalised in order to be transmitted with effectiveness, maturity and critical awareness.
NB: The training course should haved started in Cremone during the winter/spring of 2020 with a first programme of contents. Although this meeting has been cancelled (due to the health emergency), we invite you to refer to that programme which remains the basis of this first phase of the course (ANNEX), even if it may undergo some minor variations.
METHODOLOGY:
The methodology is mainly divided into three distinct training modalities:
1. THEORETICAL LESSONS (directive approach: lectures, transmission of knowledge, stimuli for reflection);
2. WORKSHOPS (collaborative approach: exchange of experiences, construction of knowledge and skills, collective growth);
3. DEBRIEFING (metacognitive approach: restitution and reworking of the training experience).
NB: The health emergency has required a review of how to implement the training programme (also exploiting digital technologies more than initially foreseen), but it has not changed the use of these three training modalities, which have only been adapted to the contingent situation.
QUALIFICATIONS:
At the end of the course, qualifications, responsibilities and tasks will be recognised according to the profile of each participant, allowing everyone to invest his/her skills in the development of Baskin.
There will be basically two recognised roles in the training field:
_ “DIVULGATOR”: First degree of qualification which corresponds to the institutionalization of a new figure, in an intermediate position between the coach (or teacher) and the trainer. This figure enjoys specific prerogatives (as defined in the ENSIn Training Regulations):
he/she is authorised to organise autonomously* dissemination events,
he/she is enabled to perform the function of “assistant trainer”;
_ “TRAINER”: Second degree of qualification corresponding to a figure who has full competence in training. This figure enjoys wider prerogatives (as defined in the ENSI Training Regulations):
he is qualified to organise autonomously* training events.
(*) “autonomously” means in any case in an agreed manner, as specified below
DETAILS ON QUALIFICATIONS: a) The “autonomy” of the Divulgator and the Trainer (mentioned above*) must in any case be considered subordinate to the consent of his/her Territorial Committee; both figures are in fact required to inform their TS in advance in order to agree on any training initiative.
b) In the role of “assistant trainer”, the Divulgator can contribute to officializing (and therefore qualifying) a training course for aspiring coaches, since the only necessary condition to derogate from the rule of 2 trainers to manage the various modules of a course (as minimum compulsory presence) is to be able to replace one trainer with 2 assistant trainers (obviously, this option can only be applied to one of the two trainers).
c) To confirm what has just been specified, it should be remembered that the basic rule for organising an official and therefore qualifying training course (for aspiring coaches) is that a Territorial Committee must be able to involve at least 2 qualified trainers (with complementary profile), keeping in mind that the total number of trainers involved in a course represents one of the quality criteria of a training. However, if there was a small number of trainers available, the course could still be organised thanks to the involvement of 2 assistant trainers instead of 1 of the 2 theoretically obligatory trainers running the various training modules.
CONCLUSION:
The path followed during the two-year period 2020-2021 must allow each participant to express his/her own qualities, contributing to raise everyone’s awareness of his/her potential (i.e. by developing the ability to evaluate himself or herself in a self-critical and realistic way in relation to training needs in the Baskin world).
