Moderation on an online training on participatory processes for local, regional and national public administrations in the EU

The JRC and the European Commission's Competence Centre on Participatory and Deliberative Democracy (CC-DEMOS) have built a specific training offer on citizen engagement processes based on co-creation and deliberation for public administrations at local, regional and national level across the EU. The training offer targets three levels of competence (basic, advanced and train-of-trainers) and is available in EN, DA, PL. It includes a full package of resources: for each competence level, it provides a course-book, annotated PowerPoint presentations, roll-out of the course, agenda of the course, self-assessment questionnaire, in-class exercises, and case collection. In the perspective of upscaling the use of this training package and reaching out to a large number of administrations, JRC is collaborating with the EU Academy to make the offer available on-line and in the three languages. The development of the training offer through pilots in Denmark and Poland has revealed that it is paramount to have moderators with a high level of experience with and expertise on citizen engagement in order to deliver successful training and accommodate specific participants' requests for knowledge and competence. Moreover, experienced practitioners and moderators would ensure that more case studies and examples are brought in that meet the interest of participants and improve the overall quality of the training. Thus, JRC and CC-DEMOS are seeking to procure online moderation of the training on citizen engagement which will consist in combining asynchronous and synchronous sessions and ensure the creation of a community of learners from public administrations and future trainers.
