The course was well structured, and the atmosphere that developed was immediately relaxed and enjoyable. Dario is an empathetic teacher, full of tasks and, above all, contagious enthusiasm and inspiration that you can draw from. The activity with Nikola was also enjoyable and interesting. It is worth noting that the course is interdisciplinary and intended for teachers of all school levels. Therefore, the content provided cannot be considered a ready-made library to draw from, but rather a model to personalise and make your own. Choosing to attend the course in August in Split, as I did, also means dealing with the heat and a crowded destination during the hours when there are no course activities. I would recommend attending it outside the peak season, or choosing one of the many other destinations offered by the school. Thank you Dario!Posted on Google![]()

I really enjoyed the Mindfulness and Wellbeing course. It was a very enriching experience that gave me useful tools to manage stress, improve my focus, and become more aware of my thoughts and emotions. Well-being strategies for teachers: practice mindfulness, relieve stress and foster resilience was a well structured course, engaging, and easy to follow. I particularly appreciated outdoor classes, the practical exercises and the opportunity to apply mindfulness techniques to everyday life. Dario created a welcoming and supportive environment, making everyone feel comfortable and involved. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve wellbeing, develop greater self-awareness, and find more balance in daily life. Split is a perfect natural location!!!Posted on Google![]()

The course was a truly positive and enriching experience. It introduced us to meaningful concepts and practical activities related to mindfulness, which I found particularly useful. Our teacher was one of the highlights of the course. He was extremely kind, engaging and cooperative, always bringing a great deal of energy and enthusiasm to the sessions. His genuine personality and gentle manners created a very positive and relaxed atmosphere within the group. I genuinely came to appreciate him thanks to his authenticity and the passion he put into his work. What I particularly appreciated was the attention he gave to every participant. He listened carefully to our questions, requests and comments and was always willing to adapt, clarify and respond to our needs. He made everyone feel heard and involved. Overall, I found the course very inspiring, enjoyable and valuable. I am leaving with new ideas, practical mindfulness activities and a greater awareness of the importance of wellbeing and resilience, both for teachers and for our students.Posted on Google![]()

I had a very mindful week in Split partaking in the course: Building better mental health and wellbeing. The methods we were introduced to will be helpful in managing the everyday stress of teaching. It was great to have a local teacher, who could share info about the Croatian culture as well as the course material. The additional social program was lovely as well and the guides provided us with insights into Croatian history and culture and showed us some truly special places.

COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course presents a broad and well-rounded approach to lifelong learning, designed to address the varied needs of adult learners. Throughout the program, you will explore the foundations of adult education, including curriculum development and relevant legal frameworks. You’ll learn to create engaging, innovative lessons that resonate with adult learners and incorporate technology to enrich their learning experience. The course also emphasizes essential soft skills—communication, motivation, teamwork—that play a vital role in both personal and professional success. Dedicated modules on mental health and well-being will equip you with practical tools for cultivating a supportive atmosphere for teachers, staff, and learners alike. Finally, you will develop confidence in using digital tools and AI, helping you navigate today’s digital environment with ease.

Exploring Curricula, Pedagogies, and Legal Foundations
For professionals in adult education, understanding specific curricula, programs, and legal regulations is crucial for effectiveness. In this course, participants will dive into the process of designing and delivering high-quality, creative lessons tailored to the needs of adult learners. They will examine modern teaching methods that highlight active participation, critical thinking, and real-world relevance. In addition, participants will learn how to use technology to simplify daily tasks and enrich the learning experience.

Developing Soft Skills: Strengthening Communication, Motivation & Teamwork
Soft skills play an essential role in achieving success both professionally and personally. Participants in this course will explore areas such as effective communication, motivation strategies, collaboration, and adaptability. Through practical activities and workshops, they will strengthen their ability to manage group dynamics, handle conflict, and encourage cooperation. By creating a nurturing learning atmosphere, we aim to support participants in developing these skills and applying them confidently as educators and facilitators in adult learning environments.

Supporting Mental Health and Well-being
Mental well-being is a fundamental yet often overlooked component of adult education. Recognizing this, the course includes modules dedicated to building awareness of mental health and fostering resilience among learners. Participants will learn to identify early signs of burnout and stress in themselves and others, and explore ways to create emotionally positive learning spaces. With the help of mindfulness exercises, stress-management techniques, and self-care strategies, participants will gain tools to support the overall well-being of adult learners and encourage a culture of empathy and understanding within educational settings.

Digital Tools and AI for Adult Learning
In an increasingly digital world, technological competence is indispensable. This course offers hands-on practice with digital tools and demonstrates how technology can enhance teaching methods. Participants will work with both basic digital applications and more advanced concepts like artificial intelligence (AI), gaining practical skills they can directly apply to their practice. By integrating technology to improve engagement, accessibility, and flexibility, participants will be better prepared to meet the diverse expectations of adult learners in a rapidly evolving digital society.
