Training
History: Leeds DEC has always offered
development education training, largely within the
formal sector and at all levels. There are primary,
secondary and tertiary specialists on the staff of
the DEC.
Recently, funding from the Environmental Action Fund
has enabled us to offer free training packages, and
we also have experience working in partnership with
education advisors, with other voluntary sector groups
and with youth and community workers, as well as in
Initial Teacher Education.
Purpose:
To explore development issues and
provide innovative approaches to sensitive issues.
To provide a quality training service
which spreads good practice, raises awareness of development
education opportunities and promotes resources to
training beneficiaries.
To promote Leeds DEC as a training
provider and raise its profile in Leeds and West Yorkshire
