PDN

PDN embraces practitioners from all areas of the FE sector with a treasure trove of online content and regular get-togethers.

PDNorth (Professional Development North) was the Northern branch of PEN (Professional Exchange Networks) originally funded by the Education & Training Foundation. The team organised and lead exchange meetings in the three areas of the north of England for 3+ years. We sought to embrace practitioners from all areas of the FE sector and even began a series of online content for those practitioners unable to be apart of the exchanges.

In 2020 the programme and it’s funding ended – but there is still life in PDNorth, yet! Now run by Chloe (project officer in the first + second years and project lead in its final year) on behalf of ccConsultancy with the aim of reimaginging the future of PDN by making it truly by practitioners for practitioners and with no geographical limit!
