    Community Activist Training Resource Pack

    Building Skills and Knowledge

    It gives us great pleasure to present our Community Activist Training Resource Pack which has been developed to help CLD practitioners to provide training and support for community activists and volunteers. This training builds on the underpinning knowledge and skills required to work more effectively in their communities and to develop opportunities for growth and change.

    This is an introductory level programme which can be delivered as a whole programme or be delivered on a more ad hoc basis, depending on meeting specific group needs.

    The training resource consist of four units:

    1. Exploring and understanding community activism

    2. Your community: Who they are and how do you reach them

    3. Taking control of what affects your community

    4. Putting it into practice

    The programme is notionally levelled at SCQF level 6 in line with the other PDA qualifications relevant to our sector.

    This training resource pack is the result of 2 years work, which involved reviewing and re-drafting of existing training materials held by Community Learning and Development in East Lothian and Falkirk Councils.
