The aim of the project is to:

• Develop training modules for staff supporting people with intellectual disabilities
• These continuous ("on the job") training courses are based on the values of inclusion, empowerment and the right to a quality of life for disabled service-users
• They also look at  issues around the empowerment of staff themselves
• This project aims to be innovative in its approach to staff training, using  "Accelerated Learning"  which draws on the idea that each one of us has multiple and diverse intelligences. It has been shown that learning is more effective if there is active engagement and enjoyment in the process of learning
• The modules will be European in nature but designed in response to local need
• They will be officially recognised in each partner country but could be used as a model in other countries and sectors.
