Youth Workers' Apprentice Programme

youth4This new Apprenticeship Programme is a culmilnation of many years worth of experience in the Youth Work field. Following on from the Youth of Adult? Programme, Key Worker Initiative and Skills Apprentice Scheme, we have developed 'YAP'. This post will support someone (18+) who has the potential to become a leader and educator, and who is keen to develop as an individual, student and worker.

This investment will range from 3-6 years, depending on the individual circumstance of the project and worker.

This programme is designed to combine work with young people and children as well as other members of the community with Foundation Level training and qualifications in youth, community, children's work and play leadership.

We aim to focus the investment on practicial skills, experience with qualification and action in a wide ragne of settings within the community. The Trainee will have the opportunity to gain relevant national governing body awards and qualifications and learn many transferable skills, such as the ability to reflect in and on practice and to be aware of the impact of their actions. This is known as 'Reflective Practice'.

For more details of our YAP programme, please see the online brochure, or contact one of the Youth Directors in the 'Contact Us' section.
