Participation Works

The project, funded by the Children’s Workforce Development Council, aims to provide 25,000 training accredited opportunities for volunteers and paid staff.

By attending 'Investing in our future: introducing the third sector young people's workforce capacity building project' you will be able to:

• Gain a strong overview of the project and the benefits for your organisations, staff and volunteers;
• Consider whether your organisation can help to deliver some of the 25,000 accredited training places or associated train the trainer opportunities;
• Inform the delivery of vital elements of the programme at early stages;
• Meet with key staff from NCVYS and our delivery partners – YMCA George Williams College and Skillsprofile.

This conference is free to attend.

• The training opportunites will cover five key areas including:
• Facilitating learning and development of young people;
• Safeguarding the health and welfare of young people;
• Maintaining health and safety in the workplace;
• Promoting access to information and support;
• Promoting equality and the valuing of diversity.

This training includes not just the capacity of staff and volunteers to meet the needs of young people, but also the capacity of organisations to develop their workforce.
