Learning in the
Voluntary Sector
There are several elements to the current project which comes to
an end on 31 October 2008:
training courses
- designed to meet the needs of the voluntary sector. Some courses
will be accredited, meaning that participants have the option to
gain qualifications
training needs analysis - local voluntary groups
will be able to benefit from an in-depth look at their organisation,
identifying learning needs and evaluating training
learning champions
- a supported network of people who will actively promote the benefits
of learning and identify training needs for the sector
learning toolkits
- resource material designed for and piloted by local groups, before
being rolled out across the sector
Skills and Knowledge Exchange - an on-line skills
“swap shop” so that groups can really start to help
each other with training and development. Click
here to join the "Learning Champions" online community.
The project is in the process of developing two new partnerships,
one looking at Welsh language issues in training and the other at
engaging disadvantaged groups in the learning process.
This project is not just about delivering training. It is a really
good opportunity to develop a learning culture within the sector
and to put in place structures and learning materials that can be
used by all sorts of voluntary groups in the future.
