Youth & Community Work (JNC)

About this course

Youth and community work is a practice-based profession rooted in informal education, working with young people and communities to support their development, voice, and agency. Unlike formal classroom teaching, youth and community work meets people where they are, whether in youth clubs, community centres, street-based projects, or outreach settings, and works from a foundation of voluntary engagement, building relationships and creating the conditions for people to reflect, learn, and take action. It draws on values of participation, empowerment, equality, and partnership, and is underpinned by a commitment to social justice. Wrexham University's three-year full-time Youth and Community Work degree is a Joint Negotiating Committee (JNC) recognised programme, as the course describes, which is the professional qualification required for recognised youth work roles in local authorities an
