    Good Conversations training will help build your skills by using a powerful ‘personal outcomes approach’ to help the people you work with grow in confidence and achieve their hopes.

    This programme of Good Conversations is directly targeted at people working in the employability sector.

    Participants will learn about the key elements central to a successful personal outcome approach and explore how to hold outcomes-focused conversations in a variety of common and difficult situations.

    The training will be greatly beneficial to managers of employment services, staff and volunteers involved directly in having outcomes-focused conversations with the people they support and people involved in training staff and service users.

    PLEASE NOTE:  The course is 3 days long and all participants must be able to attend all 3 sessions.

    Participants will:

    • Understand the policy, and evidence-based as to why a ‘personal outcomes approach’ matters when it comes to employability support.
    • Develop our collective understanding of the value base and core elements fundamental to delivering a personal outcomes approach.
    • Be equipped with a range of skills to undertake Good Conversations and support the use of the personal outcomes approach in their work.
    • Discuss how these tools can support our work, and what might need to change at systems, service and frontline levels to take this forward.

    The course will take place over three days and each session runs from 09:30 - 16:00, with registration opening at 09:00.
