Coaching and Mentoring
This short course of two x 3-hour sessions ensures theoretical understanding is firmly linked to practice and is of particular interest to those practitioners who have leadership and mentoring responsibilities. The course will explore the nature and potential for coaching and mentoring (based on the GROW model and a selection of simple tools) with opportunities to practice and develop key skills.
So How do we Know we're Making a Difference?
A short course focusing on how to ensure projects and services have a clear framework for evaluation from planning through to delivery and review. Using a simple set of headings, small groups or teams can work together to form a clearer understanding of the rationale and purpose of projects and specific areas of work. The training provides opportunities to work with real projects or services followed with an optional session that looks at how to prepare reports and findings.
Look out for more short courses and workshops that will be added during 2014
Training sessions and workshops can be delivered according to your specific requirements: we are able to design and deliver sessions for local authorities and clusters of schools, pre-schools, children’s centres and anyone working with young people.
