In the Erasmus+ project "ArtE - The Art of Employability", trainers from the project partners in Portugal, Spain, Italy and Germany came together for a five-day training in Porto in April. Together they explored and experienced the ArtE method, a combination of Social Art, job coaching and entrepreneurial mindset training, and passed it on to new trainers.

Enabling people to (re)enter the world of work with the help of Social Art - that is the goal of ArtE. A combination of job coaching, Social Art and entrepreneurial mindset training helps participants to visualise their personal and professional goals and to develop the necessary skills to get there. Above all, work on social skills and self-confidence, but of course also professional skills play an important role. In order to experience the effect of the method "first hand" and to disseminate the method to suitable trainers, the project partners from Portugal, Spain, Italy and Germany met in Porto in the first week of April 2022 for a transnational training.

Everybody is an artist!
This was the motto of the "Train the Trainer" week in Porto. In daily theatre training sessions, in which Social Art methods were applied and presented, the participants learned to enter into dialogue with themselves and with others. The impulse theme of "fairy tales" from the project partner "Projektfabrik" from Witten served as the basis for the theatre work. In small groups, scenes of a fairy tale were developed, which were the basis for the visit of potential new stakeholders on the last training day.
