How do we move away from asking "How do we deliver content?" to "How do we create a learning process that helps people grow, adapt, and learn continuously?"


โœ… Who can apply for Erasmus+ and ESC? Eligibility depends on activity: ages 13โ€“30 for most Erasmus+ youth activities and 18โ€“30 for ESC volunteering (up to 35 for humanitarian aid), plus country and residence rules.

โ„น๏ธ Description About The Opportunity

The world around us is changing faster than ever. Technologies evolve, professions shift, and information becomes outdated in the blink of an eye. In todayโ€™s landscape, success depends not just on what we know, but on how quickly we can learn, adapt, and respond to change.

How do we move away from asking "How do we deliver content?" and start asking "How do we create a learning process that helps people grow, adapt, and learn continuously?"

Join us for the official launch of our brand-new Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) and practical manual, designed to transform how we approach youth work, non-formal education, and facilitator-led environments!

What is Agile Learning?

Inspired by flexible, iterative approaches in the IT sector, Agile Learning reimagines education. Rather than treating learning as a rigid lineโ€”plan, teach, test, finishโ€”it treats learning as an ongoing cycle of experimentation, feedback, reflection, and self-direction.

This shift transforms learners from passive consumers into active co-creators of their own journey, building key modern competencies:

  • Problem-solving & Critical thinking
  • Active collaboration & Communication
  • Adaptability & Self-management

What to Expect at the Launch Event

At this launch event, you will:

  • Discover the MOOC & Manual: Get a first look at our interactive, self-paced online course and practical facilitation toolkit.
  • Explore Real-World Applications: Learn practical frameworks to create flexible, participatory, and learner-centered environments.
  • Hear from the Creators: Listen to insights and lessons learned from international trainings, practice mentoring, and field testing.
  • Connect & Network: Meet educators, trainers, youth workers, and facilitators from across Europe.

Who Should Attend?

  • Youth Workers & Community Leaders
  • Teachers & School Educators
  • Trainers & Facilitators
  • Anyone passionate about innovative, learner-centered education
