The fourth edition of the Skills for Life professional
development planning pack was launched by the Improvement Programme
in February 2008.
The Skills for Life strategy (2001) promised better training for
teachers, tutors and trainers and those supporting learners with
language, literacy and numeracy (LLN) needs. As a result,
providers in the lifelong learning sector are experiencing a time
of rapid change and development in regulations and requirements for
Skills for Life professionals. Organisations are facing the
challenge of producing clear, realistic, coherent plans for Skills
for Life staff development. This pack sets out to support
Skills for Life professional development planners with professional
development planning for their staff teams.
The pack offers:
- activities for awareness raising sessions
- materials to support staff qualifications audits
- sample training plans for individuals
- a case study of an organisation
- sample organisation professional development plans
