Youth Arts Project Management: Accredited Training from ArtsplanArtsplan, the training and publications arm of Artswork, the national youth arts development agency, is pleased to announce it will be running the very well established 6-day accredited course ‘Youth Arts Project Management’ in early 2009. The course forms part of a diverse selection and range of training and resources Artsplan has available. The ‘Youth Arts Project Management’ course is a rare opportunity to gain accredited youth arts training and will run on the 15th/16th January, 12th/13th February and 19th/20th March 2009 and take place at the Basepoint Business Centre, Andersons Road, Southampton, Hampshire SO14 5FE. The course is accredited at Level 2, 20 credits with Middlesex University. Artsplan is the largest provider of specialist youth arts training courses and publications in the UK, and the in-house training provider of ENYAN (English National Youth Arts Network). All Artsplan trainers involved have a wide range of skills, experience and understanding developed whilst working within the youth arts sector. The course provides an excellent, practical induction to developing and running a youth arts project, regardless of length, size or art form. The course is split into 6 units over a total of 30 hours contact with a trainer, with another 90 hours of research and assignment time expected. This informative accredited course covers the strategies, skills and issues involved in devising and planning an arts project with and for young people. The course will examine the practical issues involved in using the arts with young people, at every stage of project planning and delivery. From initial ideas through to the nuts and bolts of delivery, using professional artists, funding, press, publicity and evaluation. All participants will receive relevant Artsplan publication resources as part of the course. Assessment is covered in three ways by a journal from the participant, a written assignment and a discussion on their practice and relevant future plans. Lisa Simmons, a previous participant of this course, comments: ‘I gained great insight, I felt it was in-depth and inspirational …A very enjoyable and informative course!’ All ENYAN members can request 5% off the course fees. Prices range from £420-£320. One bursary is also available at £190. |
