"I learned how to develop a fundraising strategy and have been given some brilliant tools which will help me to do so. I actually received a lot more than expected which was great. The trainer was very knowledgeable, fun, relaxed and pleasant. She applied lots of presentation techniques to accommodate all learning styles and kept us constantly engaged." participant on Measuing Outcomes course |

"UCL has proved to be a truly innovative and exciting project. In piloting this project to voluntary and community organisations in South London, 40 organisations have benefited from in-house consultancy and in excess of 120 learners from a range of accredited and non-accredited training courses. This is truly a step in the right direction particularly in terms of capacity building the VCS to ensure we are a force to be reckoned with." Salma Ismail (UCL Project Manager) |
