15th – 22nd May 2016. The aim of the study session was to develop youth workers’ competences for providing one-on-one coaching to young people who are most at risk of becoming NEETs in order to reduce inequalities among young people and to ensure they make a successful move from education to employment. The study session gathered 42 participants and was a step forward towards reducing inequalities among young people and ensuring that young people make a successful move from education to employment, and avoid social and labour market exclusion. It had a networking dimension and was designed to contribute to promotion of young people’s access to rights by supporting youth work and facilitating young people’s transition to autonomy and social inclusion. It provided opportunities for exploring and reflecting on competences that professionals working with young people need to have so as to be able to support those that are most at risk of becoming NEETs in making a successful move from education to employment and preventing social and labour market exclusion. As a participant I was fully in and enjoyed each day of the training. First of all I found out I had been coaching for several years but did not know about that till I knew what coaching means. The second thing I liked most that I felt equal with the organizers. The organizers' team was so open and so welcome that I had a wish to become a member of YSRN family. Fortunately my wish came true. After the first day of the training I myself wanted to contribute somehow and decided to make daily videos of all training days. On the last day I made a video about the whole training which later became official video of the study session In NEET of a coach.
