‘Passepartout’ has two different meanings….the first one refers to a skeleton key that opens alldoors, whilst the second meaning refers to the cardboard cut-out which is used in frames toenhance the picture in the form of a border whilst protecting it! In our project we used this word torefer to the way that Youth Pass and it competences can help to be that skeleton key that helpsopen the doors of employment! The border which enhances the picture was; in this case, takenmetaphorically to be enhancing one’s formal education, making the participants more competentin their youth work and in the careers they practice!The Training Course took place in Malta at the end of March 2012 and was run by trainersselected from within the TDM 2000 INTERNATIONAL network. The trainers and the participantsworked together in a non-formal education environment for a whole week, where they sharedgood practices and learnt more about methods to improve personal competences. Theparticipants came from 7 different countries and from partner organisations which are very activein youth work!Changes:The dates of the main activity where changed due to the fact that none of the two trainers selectedat application stage could make it on the dates 23rd – 30th February. Instead Local Trainers LisaMartin and Duncan Muscat joined Ms. Angelica Perra in the training team.Two of the three scheduled Icelandic participants could not attend the training course. These twoparticipants were replaced by a Fourth Romanian participant and a Fourth Italian Participant.All these changes were approved by the officials of the Maltese National Agency (EUPA)Besides the scheduled programme, the Trainers team decided to add a survey to give theparticipant the opportunity to go out into the streets and ask persons what they knew about Non-Formal Education and questions about the 8 competences. This gave added value to theprogramme and the outcome of the dissemination magazine.
