Spaces Available on New Accredited Training Course
There are spaces available on a new ‘Flexi’ Accredited Get Into Reading Facilitator Course which will be held at Haslington Library, East Lancashire. The course will provide you with all the tools and practice necessary to establish and run your own Get Into Reading groups for your local community or workplace.
As with all Read to Lead training courses, we are looking for candidates who are passionate about the transformative power of books and who can demonstrate a powerful willingness to develop a wide range of personal reading. You should be a good team member, self-motivated and, preferably, have had the kind of experience which will enable you to research, design and deliver reading programmes for community groups, people with multiple deprivations, or those with ill-health.
The course costs £800 and is scheduled run for six sessions on the following dates: 22nd September; 29th September; 6th October; 20th October; 17th November; 8th December. If you can attend all these session, and feel that you can satisfy our criteria, please contact Casi Dylan on casidylan@thereader.org.uk or 0151 794 2830.
