Giant Productions

Training

Training is a core part of our programme of work. In order to develop accessible and inclusive art forms we need to share our skills and knowledge.

We have been facilitating inclusive arts training for over five years to those interested in working creatively with children and young people.

Inclusive Arts Training Programme 2008/2009

The Inclusive Arts Training Programme brings together the expertise of Giant and Creative Therapies both CPD Registered organisations to deliver a wide range of training initiatives for those interested in using the arts to develop their own skills and work with their client groups.

Our 2008/2009 programme offers courses that can be delivered as in-house training with our professionals coming to you, or as training events run by Giant or Creative Therapies in an identified venue on a specific date.
