Please note this training occurs over two days (9th May and 21st May) - please do not sign up unless you can attend both days

Thank you for your interest in this training, delivered by Save the Children UK in partnership with Professor Alison Clark, Professor of Early Childhood Education, and Starcatchers, Scotland’s arts and early years organisation.

The training is free to attend for Save the Children staff and our valued partners and aims to enable participants to confidently seek and interpret babies’ and young children’s voices in meaningful ways that are child-centred, ethical, and enhance practice and influencing work.

We have received more interest than spaces available. These spaces will be issued on a first-come first-served basis – please sign up here as soon as possible to secure your place. Spaces are being held for those individuals and organisations that have already expressed interest, with one space available per organisation. Resources will be shared with those unable to attend after the training.

The training will be delivered online using Microsoft Teams over two days. Further information will be shared once attendance is confirmed. Participants will need to be able to attend both days - please do not sign up unless you can attend both days.
