Tracy receives her long earned qualification in Community Development

Tracy Prandle of Caia Park Partnership has received her HNC in Community Development from Llandrillo College. Tracey has been studying for the last two years towards the qualification which further compliments her work with groups and associations carried out over the years as a Volunteer. Caia Park Partnership and Llandrillo College have been working in partnership to supply Higher Education qualifications in the community for a number of years, which is now coming to fruition. Nigel Davies, Deputy Chief Officer at Caia Park Partnership, who also lectures on the course said,” The course embraced a number of aspects of community development such as; Understanding Community, Networking and Partnerships, Social Policy and Politics, along with the practical every day work in community” Nigel also said, “Tracy has worked really hard to achieve this qualification which has given her a good grounding in development work. Tracy has been employed by Caia Park Partnership as a Capacity Builder, which will further reinforce her studies. The future really looks bright for Tracy as this is her first step on the Life Long Learning ladder. Tracy has a thirst for learning and is looking to work towards her Degree and Masters in Community Development.
In the coming year others will also be graduating in community development with the successful partnership continuing with Llandrillo College and Bangor University. Caia Park Partnership will be offering the Foundation Degree from October along with other training courses in community development”.
