progressive autonomy in activities to develop, setting their own goals to achieve, always supported by
volunteer tutors and technical team; detecting training needs and being assigned spaces for the development

supported by the Castilian language training. Highlighting the areas of professional area educational
intervention, of culture, leisure and sport, and the scenic area, etc.

methodological approaches: Pedagogy of affection, Intervention in leisure and free time, etc.. , Developing

3. Training program and activities of the organization in which volunteers can participate.
The centre has mechanisms and strategies for the education and training of professionals (teachers, educators,
volunteers, etc.) which will be tailored to the specific training needs of European volunteers, previously detected. We
view this program on adaptation to European volunteering as a continuous process with no formal activities and
workshops and a growing awareness on the part of the volunteer, along with the use of continuous assessment tools of
knowledge, skills and competencies to be developed between volunteers and their tutors. However, these will be
supplemented with formal training activities in areas required: linguistic, technical, etc. It includes motor learning as

interesting learning opportunities for the assumed operating dynamics.
