Candidates' Portfolio Support

The overall aim of the Learning Network is to support, encourage and inspire Methodist people in all aspects of Our Calling as together we seek to be an inclusive, justice seeking, evangelistic and growing church.Sharing responsibility with others within the Connexional Team and key stakeholders within the districts, circuits and churches, the Learning Network works primarily with lay and ordained church leaders, equipping them as they in turn seek to equip all God’s people.Our work is developed from what comes out of the Conference, either directly or together with other parts of the Connexional Team, and what comes up from the grassroots across the wider church. We work together Connexionally to equip and resource the Church through a wide range of relevant learning opportunities and development support.The Learning Network team brings a diverse range of skills, experience and specialist knowledge in ministry and mission. A team of six Learning and Development Managers work closely with the Head of Ministries and Learning to direct the work of the Learning Network, with support from the Senior Administrator.
