Accredited Level 2 Course in Community Empowerment and Leadership ECEN's Accredited Level 2 Course in Community Empowerment and Leadership Course is for anyone involved with a voluntary or community organisation based in Enfield. It consists of 12 weekly sessions. The course is being delivered by the consultant Ian Beever at Community House, 311 Fore Street, Edmonton N9 0PZ. The course is being run in partnership with Barnet College and Northern College for Further Education (NCFE), who accredit the course. The course will enable participants to: - Develop their role as a community representative and explore ways they can fulfil this role
- Research and identify their community's needs
- Understand different forms of engagement and participation
- Learn how to present a case effectively and have real influence
- Understand the policy and structural environment for influence and engagement
Throughout the course participants will build a portfolio of evidence involving written work, researching, presentations and development of a questionnaire. There will be some compulsory units and participants will also do some work based on their own special interests within Enfield's community empowerment environment. Participants who successfully complete the course will be awarded a Level 2 Qualification in Community Empowerment and Leadership. This qualification can be a "stepping stone" to access higher learning or move into employment; or the course can simply be used to build up skills and knowledge.
