An opportunity to learn together with Quaker clerks across the globe. We will be considering the clerk’s role before, during and after a Meeting for Worship for Business and looking at the different styles of clerking around the Quaker world.
This course is for all clerks – whether you are at a local, regional, national or international level or simply want to learn more about the role. We hope that participants will learn from each other as well as the course leaders.
Participants from our 2023 course commented:
‘I feel that I have benefited from such a rich seam of knowledge and experience’
‘The global diversity and range of experience from both tutors and participants made for rich exchanges’
‘This course has helped me to become a more confident clerk!’
