New e-learning hub for youth workers

We've got an exciting development our team has been working on that I'd like to share with you: the new NYCI e-learning Hub!

When we first dipped our toes in the waters of e-learning in the middle of a pandemic with our online Covid-19 induction, we never pictured the day when over 3,000 of you have successfully completed an NYCI e-learning!

Check out our new e-learning Hub!

Since then, we’ve been meeting with and listening to those of you supporting young people, and working with expert partners to develop a new elearning platform designed to meet your emerging needs.

What you'll find there

On our e-learning Hub you’ll find training to help you with topics including

online safety
inclusion and social justice
transformative practice

as well as tools to track and develop young people's life skills and measure the impact of non-formal education and youth work.

And the best part is we're making these supports available in one place, as and when you need them, free of charge for youth workers, volunteers and those working with young people.

All the best,

Alison
