‘Learning opportunities’ guide launched

A new guide highlighting opportunities for people working with children, young people and families in Orkney to expand their knowledge and skills has been published by the Orkney Childcare Partnership.

Learning Opportunities for the Children’s Workforce in Orkney is available, free of charge, here.

Maureen Swannie, the children’s services manager for Orkney Health and Care, said: “Across our community there are many experienced and knowledgeable practitioners who can share their expertise to create interesting opportunities for colleagues to learn and develop.

“Our shared aim is to ensure that Orkney is the best place in Scotland to grow up – a place where children, young people and families can get the right help at the right time in the right way.

“This new learning prospectus is a fantastic source of opportunities for Orkney’s children’s workforce to get training and find support where they need it.”
