During the training course, the participants gain confidence, recognise their skills and resources, learn how to work in teams, experience solidarity, creativity and ability to communicate through practice, and develop the feeling of being socially responsible. In addition, each participant learns how to make arguments in support of a discussion, search for and use information and materials that he/she needs, and how to acquire management and business running skills. This enables him/her to easily cope with the business world and make a successful career. In terms of social matters, the training course prompts young people to become more engaged and spend their leisure time doing meaningful things, hence convey their knowledge and experience to other young people.
