previously known as the "Voluntary Sector Training Advisory Group" - TAG)

What is the network?

The network was previously known as the Training Advisory Group. Since the creation of the group back in April 2000 the membership has changed and so has the purpose of the group. It was decided by the group that a re-launch and a new name should go with the new direction. The network is for Voluntary and Community groups in Pembrokeshire who provide learning opportunities or who have an interest in learning / training.

Why join the network?

FREE membership to the Online Community. Get all the information about courses, funding opportunities, consultations and new initiatives before anyone else. There is also the opportunity to post your own information and join in discussions. Free PAVS training vouchers are often posted on the community for you to print out and use.

• Get your voice heard, members of the group are representatives on a number of strategic networks, such as the Pembrokeshire Learning Network.

• Explore opportunities for working together and partnership working to share best practice, combine resources or bid for funding.

• Share information and keep up to date with what's going on in Pembrokeshire, Wales and the UK .

• Promote your learning opportunities or your services though the Training Programme, Online Community and PAVS website - for free.

What can I expect from the Network?

You will be invited to attend quarterly meetings, but don't worry if you can't attend, you can access all the papers (and contribute to discussion) through the online community.

Speakers will be invited to each meeting and you can suggest a topic or speaker to be invited along.

You will receive updates on local and Wales-wide opportunities, such as courses, events or forums.

You can access specialist workshops and courses for professional development. Including free training on using the online community, should you need it.

Schedule of Dates for 2008

Meetings will run from 11.00 am - 1.00 pm unless otherwise notified. Venues will be confirmed prior to each meeting

New members are always welcome so, if you are involved in the voluntary sector in any way and are interested in training, why not come along to the next meeting and get involved in the work of the group? To date, some excellent results have been achieved, but there is still a lot more that can be done to raise the profile of the sector as a key player in training and development.

How do I join?

Even existing TAG members should let us know if they would like to join - we will remove you from the mailing list if we do not hear from you.

All you need to do is contact Louise Walters at PAVS on 01437 769422 (or email training@pavs.org.uk ) with your contact details, and a valid email address if you would like to join the online community
