In order to help our young people grow and develop we must ensure that the adults who work with them in youth settings: are aware of the important role they hold; gain relevant, current information; and develop and apply key youth work skills.
Our experienced youth service staff combine their knowledge of the needs of young people and youth leaders in their areas with their knowledge of training resources and create a wealth of training courses-compiled in this booklet. The courses are of varied length and intensity, reflecting the diverse nature and needs of our part-time youth worker cohort.
We also aim to nurture the development of our young people by providing personal and social development fo-cussed training, progressing to leadership skills courses.
All of our training is of high quality and we offer a range of accreditation (e.g. Open CollegeNetwork NI, St John Ambulance, NEELB certification etc.)– provided by our own experienced staff or in partnership with excellent specialist providers.
Our training courses not only improve our collective service to young people, but can be of great personal bene-fit to you in terms of: improvement of self confidence; networking with other local leaders/clubs; attaining knowledge applicable to a range of club/unit or life situations; gaining practical skills immediately
The booklet below sets out detail of the wide range of courses available in the Academic year 2011-2012 to Young People (aged 14-17) and Adult Youth Leaders (18+) in the NEELB area.
