Developmental support for the

Your organisation can buy in a
number of hours of support for your
board members, senior managers or
project officers so that they can
access and consult BEN for advice or
support when the need arises.
Periodic small group developmental
seminars can be arranged so that:
- the experience of staff can
be shared and staff can feel
supported by each other
- further on the spot advice re
possible solutions and
training is directly keyed
into the day to day problems
encountered
Investing in the development of
skills within local ethnic
communities
BEN can train members of ethnic groups to
gain skills specifically to access the
services and resources offered by your
organisation and to make use of your
expertise in order to advance social
inclusion and equal opportunities in the
drive for sustainable development
