Youth Work Data Course

We know data is important, but do we know how to use it for good in the world of youth work? That’s what this course, delivered online by Fife college is about. Starts 5th February 2024.

As the world becomes increasingly digitised, we’ve witnessed exponential growth in data with the total amount of global data estimated to double every two years.  We know data is important, but do we know how to use it for good in the world of youth work?  That’s what this course, delivered online by Fife college is about.

What is it?
This course is a response to the need for the youth work sector to recognise the ever-increasing importance of data in making decisions in the modern world and to help youth workers and managers develop skills in this area that will drive forward success for the sector in general and young people in particular.

Who is it for?
The course is suitable for youth workers, managers, volunteers and anyone interested in developing their knowledge of data in a youth work setting.

If you want to make the best use of impact evaluation data to measure the success of your youth work, use data to understand your communities and plan effectively for the future, this course is for you.

You don’t need any specialist knowledge to join.
