Community Needs Analysis Training by Education Scotland
Created: 12/11/2026
The training aims to refresh and enhance participants' knowledge, understanding and confidence in undertaking community needs analysis.
It will support attendees to effectively identify and understand the needs, strengths and priorities of the communities they work with, while exploring practical approaches and tools that can be used to gather, analyse and use this information to inform planning and delivery.
The skills and approaches covered will support evidence-informed practice and help strengthen our understanding of local communities and priorities.
It's particularly relevant for staff involved in community engagement, community development, youth work, adult learning, participation, and partnership working.
