How can you work with us?
We recognise we can best improve family relationships in Scotland by working collaboratively with voluntary, statutory and professional agencies. We bring knowledge, skills, proven courses, information resources and expertise in parenting issues to our partnerships, along with a willingness to share and learn from other organisations.
We are open to working in partnership with your organisation by:
- Delivering parenting courses to individual parents, client groups or organisations, designed to 'plug the gaps' in existing provision
- Providing information and resources to assist parents and organisations
- Delivering training for parent facilitators and supporting them to deliver courses and other services to parents
- Collaborating on the development of national and local policies relating to education and family life
- Supporting local parent participation in relevant forums and groups
- Providing quality assurance, monitoring, evaluation and feedback
What do you need to do to run a course with us?
We are happy to discuss specially adapting our courses to suit your organisations individual needs. We can combine or modify courses to focus upon specific issues or deal with certain issues. Equally, we are able to adapt group sizes and course delivery to suit the needs of individual participants. If you wish to host one of our courses, either for parents or professionals, please contact Jackie Tolland, our Development Manager. If you wish to discuss adapting a course, please describe your requirements in the additional information section of the proposal. Alternatively, you are welcome to contact our Development Manager to discuss your options.
Once you have registered your interest, we will contact you to discuss your requirements in detail. Our contracts clearly set out what we can expect from each other to help ensure the course is a success. This helps us both to ensure that the parents we work with gain maximum benefit from the course they will be attending.
We are keen to discuss your ideas as to how we might work in partnership together, so please get in touch.
