Learn, Grow and Develop has been designed using tried and tested principles and theories following research with potential learners who overwhelmingly asked for a short programme to help them understand behaviour and improve self-awareness while supporting families.
Learn, Grow and Develop aims to open opportunities for learning that will help professionals who support families understand behaviour which in turn will help them to change lives, improving the well-being of the individual, their family and communities. The programme can be used to support the following:
- Anyone who comes into contact with families who would like to learn more about the families they provide interventions to and feel equipped with the tools that can support life changes
- Anyone working with families to help understand their behaviour and how to support them in the cycle of change
- Professionals that work with supporting families who have low self-esteem or lacks in confidence
- A group or individual who would like to improve their knowledge of self-awareness when working with families
- Professionals that support families where there is intergenerational worklessness and are looking to build their confidence and self-esteem in order to get back into either volunteering or paid employment
