A major training programme that aims to improve the leadership and management skills of professionals in the youth workforce will be launched at the end of March.
First pledged in the government's 10-year youth strategy Aiming High for Young People, and commissioned by the Children's Workforce Development Council, the three-year programme will reach more than 5,000 frontline managers and nearly 500 service leaders in all 151 local authorities in England and most national voluntary youth organisations and independent providers.
Who will provide the training?
It will be provided by a consortium of organisations, led by FPM Training, which specialises in offering skills development programmes to public sector managers. Organisations involved include: The National Youth Agency, Catch 22, the Association of Directors of Children's Services' Virtual Staff College and regional youth work units.
