Supporting groups with their ICT

ICT Workshops for Development Workers

Alongside the ICT health checks the regional ICT project is offering ICT 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.

N.B. These free workshops have been designed for non-technical staff - you do not need to be an ICT expert to take part, quite the opposite. They are aimed specifically at those working within local infrastructure organisations.

Workshop topics

Each workshop will include:

• What help is available to organisations
• Benefits of ICT
• Costing and funding ICT
• ICT planning
• DIY health checks
• Databases and websites
• Social media
• Other resources and top tips

All delegates will receive a free 4gb USB Stick with lots of useful information and resources.
