Volunteering, Qualifications and Industry
Start date: Jul 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The UK are looking to improve the mechanisms whereby those with fewer qualifications are trained in sport and recreation and placed with industry partners locally. The members of the County Sports Partnership Network and Association of Colleges members are working with Sport England nationally to develop and roll out a national programme to support this work. Black Country Consortium are leading this project to build on the learning and experience of the work of DGI in Denmark and Akershus idrettskrets in Norway that have established national level volunteering and training programmes over the past 5/6 years to inform the UK project partners. The UK will send 2 multi-disciplinary teams of 8, one to each partner country, to look at the development and implementation of volunteer training, placement and support of volunteers - particularly those with low levels of qualifications and bring back methods, systems and improved understanding to educate and support learners in the UK. The mobility will include job shadowing, observation of training, discussions with stakeholders, participants, trainers and training designers in order to give the local context and as full an understanding of the project in order to help improved implementation of the project back in the UK.
