One of the most popular pages on this site is a post I wrote about starting out in youth work. I receive regular hits and comments from people interested in getting into the field and looking for more information.

Therefore I’m pleased to say that the YMCA George Williams College is holding its annual Open Day on 28th April 2009. Speaking from experience, I can say that the range of youth work and informal education courses that the College run are some of the best available and I would highly recommend them to anyone interested in becoming qualified as a youth worker.

The open day starts at 1pm and goes on until 8pm so you can drop in at any time and take a look at the range of full-time, part-time and distance learning options. At 3 O’clock there will also be the launch of ‘Contexts’, a publication of students work (including an article of mine)!
