Purpose

The Learning & Development Officer will work together to identify training needs with the individual and their team leader to plan the appropriate course to meet their specific training need. We encourage a learning environment for all staff, we believe learning by doing is important to widen participation and encourage personal and professional development.

Householders, families and advocates need to know that staff are appropriately trained to develop lifestyles, meet personal needs and improve the quality of service.

While respecting and valuing diversity and difference in staff's needs and abilities, we acknowledge these and will always ensure that there is equal access to training. As an organisation we recognise that individual learning styles vary and courses are not appropriate for all, and we will strive to offer a wide variety of training opportunities to individuals who work in the ELT.
