The Elements

In order to give you some orientation for the different elements in and around our learning materials, here are some elements described very briefly. Just click on the container to learn more about them.

Modules
The CaseWORK Training Seminar provides three modules:

Information

Intercultural Competence

Psychological Support

Courses

Courses are the smaller units you can find within a module. Each of our modules include five to six different courses. You are allowed to choose freely in which order you would like to work through them but we highly recommend to follow the given order displayed by the numbering of the courses.

Quizzes and Tasks

Quizzes

Each course includes two to four quizzes. You don’t have to take the quizzes in order to procede but its nice to challenge oneself once in a while. You can check your own progress and find out whether you have understood the content properly.

Self-Reflection Tasks

Self Reflection Tasks are supposed to make you think about the contents more deeply and to relate them to yourself. Some of them will be discussed in the forum. You will find further information about the forum below.

Achievements
In this course we have included an achievement system to keep you motivated and to provide you with an overview of what you have done so far and which courses are still to be explored. You can earn a badge for the completion of each course. For completing all courses of one module you get a small certificate. If you complete all three modules (the first module „Information“ only has to be completed in your country-version) you can order a printed version of a certificate of attendance.

Please note: In order to complete a course, you have to mark all single pages as complete. Click the red box „mark as complete“ at the bottom of each page in order to do so.

How to get to the achievements

If you are in a module, there is a dark blue button above the courses saying „Sehen Sie sich Ihre Erfolge an“.

If you click on it you will be redirected to an overview of your achievements. You can also navigate to your account manually. Just click the tab „account“ in the upper right area of the screen.

Forum
We have included a forum for each country so that you can get in touch with other volunteers working in the field. Why don’t you check it out and introduce yourself? Visit the forum here.

Please note: We have include some tasks in the courses which are supposed be discussed with others in the forum. We warmly invite you to share your opinions and to get in touch with the others!

Surveys
The CaseWORK Training Seminar is funded by the European Union and we need to evaluate our offer. We don’t charge you any money for taking the courses but you can easily „pay us back“ by participating at all of our anonymous surveys. Your data is of course used in the context of this project only and all of your answers are anonymous.

You can learn more about our surveys and how the participation works on the next page.

Links

On several places we have included links in the text. Links are bold and colored green. If you hover over them with the mouse, the mouse turns into the shape of a hand pointing at the respective text passage.

This is a flyout container. Flyout containers are boxes in light blue on which you can click to display more information.
