The National Training is a program for people committed to understanding the craft, theory and practices of community organising: power, leadership, interest, relationships and organisation.

Leadership: Not only will attendees learn about community organising, but engage in self-reflection on their own leadership, tendencies in public life and role in their organisations. 

Rebuilding and strengthening organisations: The training provides tools for organisational leaders and members to address the challenges and decline of civil society and the impact that has on modern organisations.

Community of leaders: This training will be particularly important as it builds a new cohort of leaders across Alberta and British Columbia in a time when civic engagement is challenged on many fronts.

It is for those who want to play a key role in leading the activities of the Alliance inside their organisation and acting as a bridge between civil society organisations.

The training draws on 80 years of experience in delivering training in Canada, US, UK, NZ-Aotearoa, and Australia. The training team brings together over 60 years of experience in community organising from Canada, the US and Australia-Aotearoa New Zealand. 

Accommodation is available for individual booking Sunday evening direct with the Venue.
