Target Audience

NIACE has designed two new one day courses offered to organisations who are planning to deliver family learning for the first time, or who are offering family learning as part of a wider programme for families or children: 

Family learning for non-specialists (1): Starting out

Family learning for non-specialists (2): Evaluating Progress

The courses are particularly relevant for managers and tutors new to family learning or who wish to develop their current offer.

Delivered by trainers who are experienced in family learning and in working with voluntary and community organisations, the courses can be taken together or independent of each other.

Family learning for non-specialists (2): Evaluating Progress looks at taking a whole organisational approach to planning for and evaluating achievement on family learning programmes to support learning and progression for the most disadvantaged families. 

This course is particularly relevant to senior managers and coordinators.

Training Aim

This one day training session aims to:

  • develop expertise in planning for and measuring impact on family learning programmes
