The ILO Entrepreneurship Trainers Academy 2021 offers participants the opportunity to become certified trainers for the ILO SIYB training packages. Delivered online, the Academy provides intensive training on both content-related and methodological issues, and is a must for any trainer working for a public or private institution striving to make a real difference in the lives of new or existing entrepreneurs. The approach is based on the most recent versions of Generate Your Business Idea (GYB), Start Your Business (SYB) and Improve Your Business (IYB).
Who attends this academy?
The ILO Entrepreneurship Trainers Academy welcomes: - Trainers working for public or private institutions, BDS providers, microfinance institutions or as consultants; - Established ILO certified trainers who want to upgrade their skills and/or become trainers in new training packages; - Managers of enterprise development organizations or microfinance institutions, who wish to learn more about the training offered by the ILO for their programmes and projects.
The Entrepreneurship Trainers Academy will consist of three distinct phases:
Preparatory phase - E-Campus - 10 May 2021 – 4 June 2021
The preparatory learning phase will be offered on the ITC-ILO E-campus and involves around 30 hours of work in total, starting on 10 May 2021. It can be done from any computer with Internet access. Participants will familiarize themselves with basic nomenclatures and concepts, the content of the selected training package and related on-line training methodologies.
On-line Training of Trainers - Webinar sessions - 7 – 18 June 2021
Delivered by SIYB Master Trainers and ITCILO online training experts. This phase around 40 hours of work in total. Upon successful completion of the on-line Training of Trainers, participants will receive a Certificate of Achievement.
Post-TOT assignments - Face to face in your country - 21 June – 30 November 2021
Participants who successfully completed the preparatory phase and the On-line Training of Trainers, will be required to themselves deliver two face to face SIYB training courses. Upon reception by the ITCILO of proof of successful course delivery in line with the required quality standards (video recording and course evaluation), participants will receive an SIYB trainers’ certificate. The estimated time investment during this phase is 100 hours. The delivery dates of these assignments will be agreed with each participant, bearing in mind the restrictions imposed on training delivery in the different countries by the present COVID-19 crisis.
In order to become a certified Trainer, all participants need to successfully complete the three phases of the Trainers Academy:
Preparatory phase: Distance E-Campus
On-line Training of Trainers: Distance with Webinar sessions
Post-Academy assignment:Face-to-face in the respective countries of the participants
When the training process is completed, your Master Trainer will enter your completion data in the SIYB Gateway, an ILO web-based monitoring tool for SYIB, that generates the official certificate. The certificate is renewed every three years if the trainer has actively conducted training during that period.
