Partnership Training Opportunities:
If you are an organisation looking for partnership training opportunities please also see our Partnerships with BTCV pages (link on right) for further training courses we can deliver and accredit.
BTCV Dorset offers a range of work based training courses to help you develop your skills and interests. You can either study with us during practical task days, or we may be able to find you suitable placements closer to home.
With all of the courses listed below, once you have been enroled you will be given a blank portfolio which will have the course details and standards in it (these are the aims and objectives you must work to in order to achieve the qualification). You will then gain practical experience on volunteer days, and will gain evidence from these days to go into your portfolio, for example pictures taken, or work logs of your days activities. You will be supported by a dedicated tutor throughout your study time with us who will help you build your evidence and portfolio.
