VC UpSkills online Development training programme
VC has been engaged in the training and preparation of International volunteers, development and humanitarian workers for over 60 years. VC has also provided support to project partners all over the world.
VC UpSkills programme
This is a series of short courses aimed at providing practical and affordable training in areas that are becoming increasingly central for the successful operation of development projects. The tailored modules aim to address the mismatch between the ever changing donor requirements for high quality funding proposals and well documented reporting, and the skillset that exists within many donor’ funded projects.
