Intro E-Learning

Course title: EUGANGS

Short Description:

Vocational / professional qualification for those working in Gang and Youth Crime environments across Europe.

Description:

Although gangs are prevalent in most large cities across the EU, there is no systematic, well supported and cohesive vocational training programme that addresses the structural, social, cultural psychological and public policy context in which gang activism emerges and operates.Gangs and gang crime similarly cannot be dealt with as a national issue in order to have real impact in communities. Membership of gangs is becoming complex and multi-cultural / multi ethnic as people become more mobile. The increasingly international dimension of some street gangs poses a cross border threat.Eugangs follows a life long learning framework and in order to encourage further transfer partners will explore insertion of the training programmes onto The European Credit system for Vocational Education and Training (ECVET).Eugangs develops a new training trainers programme, supported with a trainer’s guide and resources to enable those with experience of working in this field to be formally accredited and become trainers either in formal, non-formal or informal VET (Vocational education and training) provision. A modular approach will be delivered and supported by developing an e-learning platform.
