The Children’s Workforce Development Council (CWDC) has appointed a national consortium led by FPM Training to deliver the Youth Workforce Leadership and Management Development Programmes. The Network for Black Professionals is a consortium partner and is focusing on contributing to the development and delivery of the leadership programme, particularly in the areas of equality and diversity.

The programme represents the biggest single investment in youth workforce development. Over 5,000 service leaders and frontline managers will receive training in the three-year programme. Starting in March 2009, the Leadership Enhancement Programme is for heads of local authority services, each paired with a third sector partner. This will be followed in 2010 by the Leadership Development Programme for senior managers as future leaders.

Recruitment is now underway for the first 1,000 frontline managers to take part in the Management Development Programme, across all sectors and disciplines for the effective delivery of integrated youth support services. Cohorts of 20 managers from a local authority area will focus on the prevailing imperatives of their area, including the Children & Young People’s Plan and Local Area Agreements. All places are funded by CWDC.
