Training Project 

Project aim:

To consistently provide a high quality training provision that is responsive to the needs of Rotherham women and community groups. 

Highlights of the Year 

• A GROW sessional tutor was successful in obtaining a full time post delivering the Remember Us project for Rotherham Library Services. She acknowledged that the work experience with us together with her professional development opportunities gave her the confidence “to have a go”
• In February 2006 GROW gained centre approval from the National Open College Network (NOCN) to deliver the Qualification Framework.
• We successfully delivered over 20 courses working in partnership with 14 organisations from the voluntary, community and statutory sector 
• We have delivered quality formal and informal learning opportunities to 170 Rotherham people 
• 91 people achieved accreditation.

In 2006 – 2007 the Training Project is working towards:

• Continuing to link in with partner organisations, delivering training and where appropriate supporting their development
• Regularly reviewing and circulating the GROW training directory
• Working with the other GROW projects to support RAPRA to be embedded
• Remaining committed to the development and maintenance of quality systems that support GROW training opportunities
• Offering further progression opportunities for our learners by extending the scope of training traditionally offered by GROW using the NOCN qualification framework.
• Developing a marketing strategy and a framework for organisations to purchase training from GROW
• Working with partners looking at the possibilities of developing training opportunities for play schemes
• Linking in with the extended school agenda and delivering training to parents on school sites.
• Developing new partnerships that will challenge and enhance the training project.
