Community Representatives Course at Wortley Hall - Sheffield Print

After completion of their Community Representatives course at Wortley Hall, three members,David Fraser and Douglas were presented with Community Certificates as an acknowledgement of the work involved in completing the course.

 

David, Fraser and Douglas all received additional learning support from Janet and Leise from Derby College. They supported the learners on the course by providing one to one support, having identified their needs after a discussion with the learners themselves.

The positive experience while attending the course was recognised by all  and David  stated 'Very impressed by the assistance given to help me with my disability'



Comments from the course learner evaluations:


' Derby support team excellent, helpful and approachable'


'The note taker/guide was invaluable to me'

Comment from Fraser during the course - 'having the support, on the second part of the course, was like the difference between night and day - it's brilliant!'

David commented that 'having someone to take notes meant that I could concentrate and contribute fully to the course discussions'.

Simon Ferrar and Nick Palmer (tutors) would like to give special thanks to Janet and Leise for their learning support, not only for the learners concerned, but also for Derby Trade Union Education Centre and Community who are a valued client for our department.
