Safeguarding Training Courses
**Important notice**
Given the current situation, we have taken the decision to postpone face to face training to ensure that we are not taking front line colleagues away from supporting the COVID:19 incident. However we are introducing limited courses for virtual training.
Please keep checking back on the website for further updates. Thank-you for your co-operation in this matter.
If you wish to apply for any of the training listed, please be mindful that there is an expectation that you complete a pre-course evaluation form and a further post-course evaluation after attendance.
If this process is not completed we may not be able to issue you with a certification of attendance and you may be refused a place on future courses.
