The SFD Training Scheme is a scheme to encourage and assist training and development for amateurs who are members of amateur drama groups who are fully paid up members of the SFD. The scheme is intended to improve skills and help development in a wide range of disciplines including performing skills, technical skills, directing skills and other relevant disciplines.
The SFD committee will approve an annual budget and the committee will also approve disbursements if they meet the approved criteria.
Rules for qualification:
1. The application must be made by an authorised representative of an SFD member society.
2. The training or development must be open to members of other SFD societies.
3. The training or development must be designed to improve the standard of amateur drama within the county of Somerset.
4. The costs must be within the available budget and must be assessed by the SFD committee to represent good value for money.
5. The SFD considers training to be a partnership and funding of the training must comprise a contribution from participating societies, a contribution from participants in the training and a contribution for the SFD.
6. Funding from other sources (eg sponsorship or contributions in kind such as free use of facilities) will not necessarily prevent the SFD from contributing.
7. The application must be made at least three months before the event to allow full consideration and approval by the SFD.
