1. What is it?

In this training you will make a personal future plan. You will think about what changes you want in your life and within what period. You will indicate what you are going to do yourself and what support you need. After you have completed the training, you will start working with your client director. In total there are 10 trainings.

The first workout

You will work on one of the themes in the future plan. Each theme addresses the following questions:

· What is going well and what do you want to improve?

· What steps do you want to take?

· What do you need for this?

The follow-up training

In the follow-up training you will actively work towards the goals. At the end of the module you will have a future plan that states what your goal is, how you will achieve it and you have taken the first steps to achieve your goal.

These are the themes:

· Getting to know each other and motivations

· Setting goals

· Who am I and what can I do? (Characteristics and skills)

· Circle of Influence

· Communication and feedback

· Conflicting interests

· Volunteer work

· Winners Triangle

· Time management

· Where am I now?

2. What is the goal?

At the end of this training you will know what new steps you can take. You can think of things like: volunteer work, a care trajectory, paid work or activities in a community center.

3. How long does it take?

Ready to start takes 10 weeks. In those 10 weeks you will receive 10 modules of 3.5 hours each. There is also a short telephone conversation with the trainer every week.

4. For who is it?

'Ready for the Start' is for everyone who is literally ready for the start! If you have been less active for a while, this is the right instrument. It does not matter whether you have been receiving benefits for a short or long time. If you are available for at least 5 hours per week and speak Dutch sufficiently, you can participate. Contact your client manager if you want to participate in this training.

5. What does the contact look like?

You report to the desk at the indicated time. We will then pick you up and first drink coffee or tea. We will discuss the agenda when the group is complete (maximum 12 participants and a trainer). In the first training you will get to know each other. Every morning or afternoon a different theme is central. A fixed part is your future plan. You will work on it yourself, in groups, in interaction with the trainers, in game form etc. In between we will take a break. You will fill in your future plan further each part of the day. We conclude each day by asking how you experienced the training. We can then improve the training with the tips. After the training you will hopefully go home satisfied and with new inspiration.
