Positif Politics Training

Recent changes in Welsh politics and the political process in Wales have produced an increasing need for high level training. Positif Politics has met this challenge and has developed and refined a series of training modules that can be delivered on key themes and issues.
Following the referendum in March 2011, the National Assembly can now pass primary legislation in all devolved subjects and following the election in may we have a new Labour Government with new Ministers and new policy priorities. What do these changes mean for your organisation? How How will you be affected by new policy and legislation?
Whether you are in the public, private or third sectors your staff and clients need to understand how key changes in the political will impact on them. You need not be a permanent client of Positif Politics to participate in any of our types of course.
We deliver our training in one of three ways:
Bespoke courses: We can come to you or you can come to us to receive a specifically tailored course which examines the issues which you want covered. Courses can range from half a day to two full day's training. A variety of organisations have used our training services including blue chip companies, public bodies and charities. Modules which we are able to offer include:
- The National Assembly for Wales; roles, responsibilities and political composition
- Welsh Government: structure, functions and political priorities
- Legislating for Wales: new powers and the new process
- Tailored sessions on specific policy contexts: health, social care, education, business, transport
- Effective campaigning and working with politicians
We have designed and delivered training courses to organisations the public, private and third sectors including:
- Environment Agency
- Glaxo Smith Kline
- Scope
- Consumer Focus
- Sanofi Aventis
- Parkinson's Diseases Society
Open courses: Over twenty open courses have been run in the last two years, offering the opportunity for organisations and individuals to learn more about modern Welsh politics and policy making. We have trained hundreds of individuals through these courses.
Modules for other training events: Our trainers are available to deliver modules for other training providers or as part of skill-raising initiatives at conferences or open days. Training modules have been delivered in Cardiff, London and elsewhere.
