Weekly online learning: 'learning thursdays' series
Available for non-members and members alike, and accessible to all people whether new to community organising, or looking to hone organising skills.
Training in Community Leadership and Organising
We have traditionally run leadership training courses at three levels. Most of our training consists of short workshops and 1 or 2-day Citizens UK Local Taster Trainings delivered in the community. If you are part of a Citizens UK member institution, ask your local Community Organiser for details of Taster Training courses in your area.
For those who want to dive into a more intensive introduction to community organising, we have Citizens UK 3-day training. This is an online course, followed by a 50 hour practical placement in your community. This course is accredited by Birmingham Newman University with a Certificate in Community Leadership.
Finally, for those who would like an immersive community organising experience, we have our Citizens UK 6-day training. This is a residential course, followed by a 50 hour practical placement in your community. This course is accredited by Birmingham Newman University with a Certificate in Community Leadership.
