The Network provides a comprehensive suite of training opportunities to meet the needs of the sector in Aotearoa - from foundational skills, developing quality relationships in mentoring, enhancing a strengths-based approach and fostering youth voice and leadership.
Our workshops bring together youth workers, teachers, social workers, and community-based mentors working with young people. This diversity of participants supports opportunities to learn about different cultures, values and perspectives, and effective skills for working with Aotearoa's diverse young people. Here is a brief overview of our current offerings. You can find more details by clicking on the relevant menu tab.
We are pleased to be able to offer in-house / community based workshops on request. In 2023 we run a couple in the central North Island and already have one scheduled for Northland early 2024. Please contact us to discuss your requirements - joy@youthmentoring.org.nz
