TRAINING COURSE FOR YOUTH LEADERS
Forty youth leaders will attend a training course next month designed
to help them develop their skills arid knowledge in human relations.
The course, organised by the Youth Work Unit of the Social Welfare
Department, will adopt a "laboratory" approach in which participants will
learn through experimenting in a secure environment.
Lectures will be given every Monday and Thursday evening from 7.30 p.m.
to 9.30 p.m. between February 16 and 26 at the Lady Trench Training Centre in
Oi Kwan Road, Wan Chai,
The course will end with an overnight camp at the Diocesan Youth
Centre in Pok Fu Lam Road on February 28.
It is open to all young people between 18 and 25 who have completed
at least Form Five level.
As the course is limited to 40 participants, enrolment will be on a
first-come-first-served basis. Application forms are available at Room 908,
Causeway Bay Magistracy Building, Hong Kong (Tel. 5-712467) and on the Top
Floor of the Kowloon Central Post Offices Building at 405 Nathan Road, Kowloon
(Tel. 3-884111 Ext. 331) until February 6. There will be a charge of $15
a person.
Six similar courses have been organised since early 1974. More than
250 applications were received in the last course hold in November 1975,
