Training for GSLs, DCs, ADCs and County Team Members

How to complete your training?

Managers and Supporters training is run slightly differently from the training for other leaders. We have just a few specialist Training Advisers who will help identify learning and help you validate modules correctly. We have a programme workshops covering all the skills and knowledge needed.  

The M&S induction and training working group will be developing further andrunning this scheme this year: Look out for a new induction programme, a new training guide, a self review form, new workshops and central validation sessions.

Step one: Download a managers & supporters training analysis here

Step two: Complete the training analysis with as much detail as possible.

PLEASE NOTE: due to capacity, we do have a backlog to complete these.

Step three: Email your analysis to gmelearning@gmail.com or post to County Office. It will be assessed against the learning requirements for your role by an experienced Training Adviser. You will receive back a Personal Learning Plan including recommendations for learning and any validated criteria completed taking account of prior knowledge and training.

Step four: Complete the learning. click here to see them and take part
