<< Background >>The Centre Forestier and the project partners applied for this project due to the identified need to improve the competences of their VET trainers and to implement in their training new pedagogics producing higher results and higher satisfaction among the trainers as among the trainees.The project is the continuation of the BLEFT project ( Erasmus+ KA2 2018-2021) during which the concept of learner-centric approaches and gamification were learnt by the partners and applied to blended-learning. The project consists in applying those approaches to face-to-face trainings in order to achieve the need identified above.Through the learner-centric approaches, the partners intend to tackle the following difficulties identified during face-to-face VET trainings : -Lack of motivation-Establishment of a participative learning environment-Establishment of a true trainer-trainee connection-Adaptation of the trainings to trainees with different learning styles-Adaptation of the trainings to trainees with learning and concentration difficulties ( DYS, TDAH notably)-Talking efficiently to trainees about safety-Conducting a training course by videoconference-Introducing digital tools in face-to-face trainingsFinally, an ultimate need is tackled through this project : the need to put forward and raise awareness on sustainable and climate-friendly forestry among the population, here more specifically among VET trainees as a part of the population generally not targeted by communication on sustainable forestry.<< Objectives >>By implementing the 2ForT project, the projects partners aim at the following :-Improving forestry trainings in Europe through the use of learner-centric approaches tested and approved for a VET target group-Improving all VET trainings in Europe as the learner-centric methods and tools experienced and promoted through the project are transferable to all VET trainees-A raise of awareness of a new part of the European population on sustainable and climate-friendly forestry and forestry workAt mid-term, the project should produce the following main impacts : 1)Higher quality of forestry professionals, who are more passionate by their job, more efficient and work more safely, thanks to higher quality trainings who really got to them. Resulting in a better adaptation to the forestry sector needs, less accidents and higher recognition of forestry workers due to a high respect of forestry sustainable management and ability to explain what it is.2)Higher quality of professionals coming from VET education, thus satisfying the needs of the professions3)Higher understanding of forestry and forestry work in Europe<< Implementation >>In order to achieve these objectives and desired impacts, the projects partners will produce 4 output results : -A list of methods and tools for implementing learner-centric approaches to VET trainings, experimented and approved-Practical guidelines videos on how to implement those approaches to a face-to-face training session-An online training course for VET trainers on learner-centric approaches, taking support from the list and videos created before hand-A training session curriculum on sustainable and climate friendly forestry and forestry work, designed for VET trainees from divers sectors using the methods and tools worked on during the project, and created in a way to make it possible for any trainer to deliver the sessionThe creation of these output results will be supported by the organisation of 5 transnational meetings and 2 learning activities of 5 days dedicated to the trainers from the participating organisations, during which they will contribute to create the output results while training and learning from each other.The dissemination of the outputs will be done through continuous communication activities as well as through the organisation of 2 multiplier events by partner, one focused on the online training course and the other on the training session curriculum on sustainable and climate-friendly forestry and forestry work.<< Results >>The project partners are expecting the following results and outcomes : -An online training course for VET trainers used and generalised among all VET training organisations-A training session curriculum on forest and forestry regularly used in VET training organisations and pushed forward by local, regional and national authorities due to the importance to educate the population on forestry as conducted in Europe-The strengthening of the forestry trainers’ community created through many projects led together at European level.-The development at mid-term of a VET trainers’ community dedicated to sharing experience, information and improving training skills, that could also lead to the development of new projects
