Workshops

Supporting groups with their ICT

The regional ICT project is again offering these workshops for third sector local infrastructure organisations (LIOs). These are aimed at development workers and other staff involved in providing support to frontline organisations. The purpose of these workshops is to enable development workers to be more skilled and confident about supporting organisations with their ICT needs. The workshop will provide key tools for signposting organisations to appropriate sources of help, including the wide range of ICT resources which are available online.

More of these workshops will be announced soon. If you are interested in attending please contact Steve Webster:
