The LearningNet Consortium was created by a group of voluntary sector organisations.
The aim was to strengthen the VCSE sector by helping organisations improve their skills base, enabling them to be better prepared for changing and challenging times ahead. LearningNet provided a free service, and developed a standardised methodology to assess both organisational and individual training and developmet needs, and then to signpost participants to training and development activities.
The Learning Net project was completed in 2008. Over 240 organisations benefitted from the services offered by the project, and now have an increased understanding of the need and value of training, training budgets and training plans.
