Community Learning and Development
Community Learning and Development describes a way of working with people in their communities, either in a group or on a one to one basis.
In Perth & Kinross, Community Learning and Development is delivered across Perth & Kinross through the Youth Services Team, the Adult Learning Team and the Community Capacity Team.
