MarCus Vrecer

About:

In youth work since 1992, active as a trainer since 1995. People say I am a "no bullshit" trainer, always finding concise and clear words, and always having the maximum benefit of the learners as the main guiding principle. Colleagues also appreciate my commitment and flexibility in team work.

I believe in:
... positive change
... the empowerment of individuals
... the strengthening of civil society
... a better world :-)

MarCus Vrecer has 8 references for past work as a trainer.
