Applications for our next training term, January – March 2024 on our website are now open!!  They close on Monday 6 November, 12noon. As well as our usual Bookbug Session Leader (in person and online) and Bookbug for the Home online, there are now open dates for our new Bookbug for the Home blended training.

 We are returning to our previous method of a two week application window. Delegates have two weeks to complete their application, and complete one application which will cover all the dates they want to apply for.

Late applications will not be accepted.  Successful applicants will receive an offer to sign up via Eventbrite and have two weeks to accept.

All applicants will hear about the outcome of their application by Friday 8 December 2023. 

Note: If you are referring a staff member to training as a high priority, please ask them to write that clearly on their form in the ‘Indication of Need’ section. e.g. start with “Referred for training by NAME (Steering Group member) as a high priority”, and then continue to write their indication of need as normal. We have hundreds of applications to get through, so this will help us make sure we’re not missing anyone you’ve noted as a priority 🙂
