In the framework of the UN Volunteer Learning Journey, the Capacity Development team wants to develop a full training curriculum, including detailed facilitators’ notes, handouts and resources to support the UN Volunteers who are finishing their assignment.

The project can be divided in two phases: a first phase of preparation of training curriculum, tools, and training materials for face-to-face courses, and a second phase of delivery.

In particular, we can expect:

  • Desk Review of UNV’s volunteer learning strategy as well as the Learning Needs Assessment and other relevant documents;
  • Identify and review practices and processes on career transition and management of other leading international organizations, including UN, IFRC etc.

  • Research and recommend specific self-paced resources and adjust those as needed to the UNV context, to be included in a self-assessment Toolkit to reflect on competences acquired and skills transfer;
  • Adapt and deliver four two days training sessions to groups of UN Volunteers in South Sudan in May 2018;
