BTEC students complete the course!

If you're interested in personal development news in the voluntary sector, then 1st June 2006 is a major milestone that marks the completion of the BTEC Professional Certificate in Voluntary Sector Management course by three charity managers based in Northampton.

Christine Lennon (Stonham Housing), Jane Skelton (Pre-School Learning Alliance) and Stephen Jones (The Jesus Centre) carried out their project presentations earlier today that officially marks the end of a 12 month period of study. Each of the learners will receive their certificate marking their achievement of this qualification at a special presentation ceremony planned for Northampton in September.

Today's presentations addressed volunteer recruitment and retention; volunteer deployment when involved in service delivery; and planning an effective office move.

Chris Lennon was the first of the three to present her project at Moulton Management Centre earlier today, and in doing so is officially the very first person in the country to complete the course that was launched in September 2005.
