Training
GALYIC have been providing training to professionals since it was set up in 1999. Training generates income which helps us provide services.
This section provides information about member presentations and the various types of training packages on offer; the prices are outlined; there is a link to the new on-line awareness training programme; information about the trainers; and, finally, who we have trained. Below you will find various training needs assessments and evaluation reports. But first, here are a few comments about our training:
"I have a better understanding of internalised homophobia; I feel I now have more resources available; I have more confidence and a better understanding regarding approaching clients with regard to their sexuality."
"Better understanding of difficulties experienced by young LGBs and long term impact; inability of some agencies to ask the question leaves LGBs only partially accessing provision - importance of question being asked."
"I feel I am now more aware of lesbian and gay issues and I am now quite motivated to do some more work around making others more aware."
