When setting up a social-emotional skills or resilience training or intervention program, you make choices about the form and content of the training. If chosen strategies prioritize elements that are scientifically substantiated, this increases the effectiveness of the training.

The Social Skills and Resilience consortium, with Minne Fekkes, Brechtje de Mooij and Geertjan Overbeek, investigated the effectiveness of elements that can be part of a training.

This tip sheet is based on the results of that research, and can be used for setting up an effective training program aimed at increasing social skills or resilience in young people.
