Brief bio: tell us a few facts about you & your interest in digital aspects of work with young people
I work as a Training manager for LECP (not for profit company), providing a wide range of training for practitioners working with young people, regardless of sector, across the London region and beyond. Our aim is to provide training that meets the needs of frontline practitioners, delivered by those with frontline experience. We are always exploring new ideas, so please get in touch if you have any thoughts. A key aim of what we do is to provide space for networking and so our training is aimed at mixing people from diverse backgrounds, sectors, job roles and geographical areas,

Given the use of social networking by the young people we work with, we see it as important to look at ways of ensuring that the practitioners who work with them are as fluent in the technology as possible. We are interested in working with others to delivery/facilitate such training.

Please join our social network http://lecp-training.ning.com/ where you can find a complete listing of courses we promote (ours and others). By joining you will also be able to access special last minute free or discounted training offers.

Venue: Stratford E15


There are positive and negative aspects to social media – but whatever our views - young people are in those social media spaces and we as youth practitioners need to understand this online environment.

Social media are part of young people’s everyday lives (Facebook, messenger, bebo etc). As practitioners, and managers of practit… Continue

Access to free or heavily discounted training

As a training provider for people working with Young People it is a source of frustration that many are exluded from our training courses due to lack of training budgets. This is particularly so for smaller voluntary sector organisations. Unfortunately as an unfunded, not-for-profit (3rd sector) organisation we are rarely funded to to provide free or subsidized training.

With commissioning, the credit crunch and potential public funding cuts on the horizon this is unlikely to improve in the sho… Continue
