Training
Stranmillis University College, Belfast
Sticky Fingers has developed a long working relationship with Stranmillis University College Belfast. For a number of years we have delivered a practical training session for the childcare studies students to support creative learning in early years settings.
We are now providing a full module on Creativity in the Early Years as part of the Stranmillis BA (Hons) Early Childhood Studies degree programme. This new programme is currently being delivered and will become a strong feature of the degree programme. We will also be directing a module in the new MA Early Childhood Studies degree programme.
Sticky Fingers is excited by the continuing professional association with Stranmillis as it represents an innovative and important development in the role of the arts in early years education.
Arts Training for Organisations
Sticky Fingers can deliver specially devised training programmes for colleges, schools and childcare organisations. In addition to our work with undergraduates and early years professionals at Stranmillis we have recently provided training workshops for Sure Start, Homestart and Newry and Mourne District Council.
We can also offer training for established or newly qualified artists, acting as mentors while they build up their experience of supervised work in early years settings.
