Community Learning

CCB offers a wide range of adult training courses, specially designed to support community groups and the voluntary sector. Many of our training workshops are free to CBAS Members and CCB Members and are of low cost or free to others.

In West Berkshire, we are part of the Voluntary Sector Training Alliance with Volunteer Centre West Berkshire. Specialist training on offer to those who volunteer in West Berkshire can be found here.
