Training & Information
Include Youth places practitioner support at the centre of our work. To do this we provide up to date information resources and training workshops.
Information
Include Youth has a long history of providing information in a variety of forms in order to ensure that projects and practitioners are kept informed. Our three websites provide practitioners with our latest news, information and forthcoming events. We also have a resource library which holds relevant materials on a variety of subjects. These are available for reference or borrowing. Include Youth welcomes information requests and will respond by sourcing the information. We also publish a Directory of Preventative and Diversionary Services for Young People in Northern Ireland. The Directory gives an overview of the work that is being undertaken with young people and their families.
Workshops
Include Youth's workshops provide the opportunity for practitioners to gain knowledge and skills. These events enhance practice, through the content as well as the opportunity to network with other practitioners in different disciplines, settings or agencies who work witht he same or similar young people.
Tailored Training
Include Youth also responds to training requests from any other organisation working with young people or developing policy relating to young people. This training is tailored to meet the needs of the organisation and make it relevant to their situation.
Our website will keep you updated on any forthcoming workshops.
