1st February - Customer Testing of Customers and Carer Commissioning Training shimAdd News161 to Scrapbook

Customer Testing of Customers and Carers Commissioning Training

 

 

It is for an event to test some new training out.

 

 

It is at the Henley Centre on the 1st of February 2012, and it would be great if lots of carers and people with a learning disability could come along.

 

Anyone who wants to attend needs to book a place with Ken Ridley on 01604 237977.

 

 

 

 

 

You are invited to an event to help test some new training.

Northamptonshire County Council (NCC) want more customers and carers to have a bigger say in how they buy services. There are lots of things people need to know so anyone who wants to have a bigger say will have to do a short bit of training.

 

This training is new so NCC would like to invite you to help them test one of the bits of this training. They will then ask you what you liked and what you didn’t like about it.
