The workshop we propose is for educational psychologists / school counselors, educators and psycho-pedagogues. In fact, it is addressed to professionals who carry out psychological and/ or psycho-educational and vocational counseling activities for children and adolescents. This practical-formative sequence will be very useful to all persons that are in different stages of their professional development in the field of preventive-curative educational and psychological interventions (students, recent graduates, practising psychologists / pedagogues / psycho-pedagogues concerned with the well-being of children and teenagers).

The training session will be structured as follows:

1. Operationalization of non-cognitive abilities

2. Concrete modalities of differentiation between cognitive and non-cognitive abilities

3. Practical strategies for training and developing non-cognitive skills (SELF KIT programs, DASECA Tool kit)
