Bespoke PhotoVoice Training

We can deliver PhotoVoice training designed around your project needs

Tailored PhotoVoice Training

If you or your organisation are thinking of running your own participatory photography project, but would like some support or insight into developing it, PhotoVoice is able to provide a bespoke training course and additional consultancy support.

This is available as a 4-day in-person course (6 days online), which uses PhotoVoice’s acclaimed training course as its starting point, with key aspects of the curriculum tailored to the specific needs of your project or organisation.

These courses suit teams or multiple staff members from within the same organisation/project, and are only available as commissioned activities. We can deliver the training in person for up to 12 attendees, or online for up to 10.

Online training is delivered via our learning platform PhotoVoice CONNECT, which includes four 3.5 hour long live sessions and independent learning which includes videos, reading and reflective assignments.

I just loved this course so much! It was without a doubt the best training I have done.

The facilitator was so lovely, taking the time to explain everything in a way everyone would understand, and made the sessions so engaging and fun that time just flew.

I found the whole course so interesting and really enjoyed hearing about past projects PhotoVoice has done, so that we could understand the impact that participatory photography can have.

Thanks so much for a fantastic course – I have come away empowered and excited to take this learning further.

Bespoke Training Attendee - February 2025

This was a fantastic week filled with varied activities relevant to several of our education programs.

The facilitator was equal parts enthusiastic, thoughtful, engaging, and passionate, and their dedication to social change via participatory photography was infectious.

I found every discussion and activity compelling and feel that I can speak more confidently on which applies best to different applications.

Feedback

"Really understanding the fun and power of photos. It was good to do so much reflecting."

Chapel Hill, North Carolina, July 2022

"I enjoyed being part of the group, learning about how other people's thoughts, experiences through photos. Also the training has really made me think about how we will deliver it to particular groups, or how we would have to adapt."

"I wasn't 100% sure what to expect, but I was 'curious'. What was delivered was above + beyond. I really enjoyed adding text to photos and how powerful this can make the image - also the facilitator's enthusiasm + wealth of knowledge."
