Hello John,

New to XR and not sure what to do next?
Coordinator looking to integrate new people?
Existing rebel who wants to delve deeper?

If you are any of these, XR UK Foundation Programme is the perfect place to start. It is a structured package of all our key trainings: find your feet and learn some super-useful skills in the process! 

Next courses starts Tuesday 8th November

You can attend either the Full Programme (6-8 hrs per week) or the Basic Programme (2 hours per week). Each is spread over 4 weeks and they both have a mix of live zoom sessions, videos and e-learning.

1. Full programme (6-8 hr/wk)
A thorough grounding in who we are, how we work and how to get involved.
Explore the breadth of roles in various teams and discover the one that is ideal for you!  (Especially recommended for anyone considering a regional, national or UK role.)
Connections: You will be part of a group taking the course together. Regular check-ins and support from the course directors 

Includes:

• XR strategy and structure
• Nonviolent Direct Action 
• Know your legal rights
• Meeting facilitation skills
• XR Communication tools
• Boundary-setting, resilience, how we support one another

You will be given support to find a role and team that suits you

2. Basic programme (approx 2 hr/wk)
The basics of who we are, how we work and how to get involved.
Connections: You will be mainly working on your own but can access support from the course directors at any time

Includes:

• XR strategy and structure
• Nonviolent Direct Action (short version)
• Know your legal rights

Feedback from our students:

“Very informative and very welcoming”

“I found the course very useful as a grounding to XR (I wish I had done it earlier, I would have been better prepared for some actions) and to help me find where I could contribute in the working groups.”

The courses are informal and flexible so you can complete in a longer or shorter timeframe if you like and existing rebels are welcome to take just the trainings that interest them. The courses repeat at roughly monthly intervals.

Love and Rebellion
