What is SET?

You may have heard about SET, or read something about it. Here you can read more about it. We put together a few FAQ (Frequent Asked Questions) about SET.

SET stands for Second-Generation Educator Training. It's a new one-year full time program, which will start for the first time on the 4th of October 2006 in Europe.

Why do we need SET?

As you well know there is the STF training program that already exists for 6 years in Europe. However Hyun Jin Nim directed to have several full time education programs for Second Generation in addition to give more opportunities. Especially he emphasized to have a general program, as STF is more focused on raising leaders who can lead the providence, especially becoming CARP center leaders.

SET is an initiative to realize Hyun Jin Nim's direction to start an alternative general program to the existing STF program. With the SET program all Second Generation can have a life of faith training and actively participate in the providence.

Who can do SET?

SET is first of all for Second Generation who graduated from High school and are 18 years and older. We expect participants to have a desire to do the program and be interested in working with Second Generation and our movement.

It's also possible to join the program as staff member from the beginning, but this requires previous training experience. Please contact us if you are interested in that. We are still looking for Supporters.

What does the program include?

We want the participants to gain a variety of experiences through different activities of our movement. The program will include:

Fundraising training
Supporting National HARP workshops all over Europe and the European Summer Activities
Service projects and service learning
Witnessing experience
Workshops and education on: Divine Principle, Culture of Heart, Unification Traditions, Current Providence, Management skills (how to run workshops, setting up a financial plan for activities, etc), Matching and Blessing.
Second Generation Educator training, to get training in all of the activities of the Second Generation Department, Junior STF Field Educator training, Blessing workshop training, understanding HARP as a youth education movement, and so on.

How to prepare for it?

After applying you will receive a confirmation letter and further information. However, it's important to prepare yourself for being away from home for a whole year. Practically it will be necessary to arrange things legally and prepare already before hand for your school year or other plans after SET, as well some kind of insurance for the year. You should also prepare internally to have the right mindset to commit to the program fully.

Is there a fee?

The participation fee is Euro 500 - for the whole year. Think of ways how to raise this fee by yourself as kind of condition, rather than just to ask your parents for it. It should be paid at the Kick-Off WS.

Who is responsible?

It's a program run by the ESGD and underlies Hyun Jin Nim. The program will be organized and run by Emanuel Bauer (emanuel@esgd.org) and Geros Kunkel (geros@esgd.org).

For further information contact us or the ESGD: generation@esgd.org

Looking forward to an exciting year with you on board.
