We are strong believers in modern learning approaches. Therefore, we will use flip learning and other adult learning concepts to enhance not only the understanding of those skills but also their use in real-life situations. In this respect, role-play and coaching will stay at the heart of our learning approach. Also; the training is based on the published book Core Correctional Skills by Professor Ioan Durnescu of the University of Bucharest, Romania.”
