Have you promoted workforce development in engaging with fathers…
…or employing more males in the family sector?
With funding from the Children’s Workforce Development Council (CWDC), the National Association for Voluntary and Community Action (NAVCA) is seeking up to ten ‘Champions’ who will actively share their learning and experience with fellow infrastructure organisations.
The aims of the scheme are:
- To promote third sector engagement in developing the children’s workforce
- To stimulate the sharing of good practice in workforce development
- To support the development of relationships between practitioners
Benefits for scheme participants are:
- £1,000 initial grant to spend on workforce development activities
- Opportunity to share learning and knowledge to help others
(additional grants up to £1,000 available to support this activity) - Promotion of your work across the sector
- Build contacts and networks
The closing date for this Champions learning scheme 2009-10 is Friday 4 September 2009
