Instruments and inspiration for professionals who work with young people

Five municipalities and six youth organizations have worked on their own professionalization task with the support of the 'Samen Beter, Beter Samen' development agenda of the Professionalization of Youth Care and Youth Protection (PJ&J) program. We searched for new forms that help professionals learn together, not only within their own organization, but also in other organizations and municipalities.
These 'development sites' have worked on a variety of instruments that can inspire professionals and other providers of youth assistance and youth protection and bring them further into learning together. Within the development sites, films, magazines, games and manuals have been developed under two themes:

Toolkit PJ&J
You will find even more useful tools on the website of the Professionalization Youth Care and Youth Protection program. The Professionalization Youth Care and Youth Protection toolkit contains, among other things, the 'Guide to Professional Registration and Re-Registration: What Does It Require from You? " you as a professional have the ability to act autonomously and what this requires from the organization, and many more practical tools for every professional in the youth domain.

Information meetings
You can also register for one of the information meetings that the program organizes for professionals, providers and municipalities. The meetings take place throughout the country and participation is free. During the meetings, topical themes and the latest developments concerning professionalization in youth care and youth protection are central. In workshops you work with colleagues on it. Under the guidance of experienced workshop leaders you get information, share your experiences with colleagues from the professional field and discuss your questions.
