Renfrewshire Local Learning Network

Image of a group of peopleScottish Social Services Learning Network West is one of four Regional Learning Networks designed to support the learning and development of Scotland’s social service workforce. Our purpose is to bring people and resources together to support effective practice - we need your help to make this happen!

This Local Learning Network web page is for all Renfrewshire individuals and organisations involved in the social services sector and should also be of interest to service users and carers.

By participating in our programme of projects and events, you would contribute to the development of innovative solutions that embed a culture of learning and continuous employee development in the social services workforce.

Please contact caty.mccolgan@westlearn.org.uk to have your news, events and/or general information posted onto the site. We particularly want to hear from you if you have good practice you want to share with others or have found solutions to problems which may also be of interest.

We are keen to keep Local Learning Network pages up to date so please visit your local web page on a regular basis to keep in touch with what is happening in your area.
