Learning opportunities

Part of NAVCA's role is to support skills and knowledge development in local infrastructure organisations (LIOs). NAVCA offers a number of learning opportunities, including traditional training days, networking events, support for action learning sets, as well as policy events where LIOs can gain the knowledge they need to fulfil their role effectively.

NAVCA supporting LIOs in delivering learning opportunities

  • Trainers and Consultants Direct is an interactive website listing trainers and consultants who specialise in working with voluntary and community organisations
  • NIACE, in partnership with NAVCA and the Workforce Hub, have produced VCS Learning Links, a website that maps the VCS infrastructure support for learning
  • LearningNet gives LIO training and development specialists an opportunity to share practice and expertise

A number of NAVCA programmes are open to discussion about collaboration in the delivery of learning opportunities to the local voluntary and community sector. These include the public law project. If you offer learning opportunities to development workers from other LIOs the SKiLD programme would like to hear from you.

NAVCA is involved in influencing learning policy through involvement in the UK Workforce Hub and the Learning and Skills Council, as well as other strategic work.
