Not for nothing, the European Union has included digitalisation in its core strategies, including it among the main focuses of 2021-2027 program. The pandemic has taught us that in order to move with the times, organisations and NGOs have to digitalise themselves too. One of the most successful ways experienced since the pandemic started is the online training. Online courses have spread widely, especially in the youth work.
