It is expected that he/she/they is present at the Competence Center for International Youth Work and non-formal Education for about 50 percent of the time. Depending on their skills, the focus of their work can be on public relations, organising meetings or working with young people. In addition, the volunteer can choose which other projects in the house he/she/they would like to be involved in. Volunteers can gain experience in organising international projects, in open youth work with the play mobile or in cultural youth education.
