Announcing the SAFE Train-the-Trainer Programme

We are pleased to introduce the SAFE Train-the-Trainer Programme, a comprehensive curriculum designed for adult educators working with older learners (65+). This blended learning programme equips educators with the skills and knowledge necessary to effectively support and empower seniors in developing their digital literacy and critical thinking skills.

Programme Highlights:

  • Introduction to Fake News: Educators will gain a thorough understanding of the issue of fake news, its impact and strategies for identifying and countering misinformation.
  • Sensitivity to Older Learners’ Learning Needs: The programme highlights the specific learning needs of seniors, ensuring that educators can create supportive and effective learning environments.
  • Developing digital and critical thinking skills: Educators will learn techniques to help seniors improve their digital and critical thinking skills, which are essential for navigating the modern information landscape.
  • Age-Sensitive Learning Concepts and Methodologies: The programme introduces educators to age-appropriate teaching methods, enabling them to tailor their approaches to better suit senior learners.
  • Multimedia Production Skills: Participants will acquire the skills needed to facilitate a multimedia production process that empowers seniors to create, edit and share their own audio and video content.

Enhance your teaching skills and make a significant impact on the lives of older learners by joining the SAFE Train-the-Trainer Programme. The SAFE Train-the-Trainer programme will be piloted in the partner regions in April and May 2024. Contact your national SAFE partner!
