This course has been designed locally for those roles that don’t quite meet the criteria for the new leadership pathway but require more safeguarding awareness than the Foundations pathway currently offers. This course is currently delivered via zoom and is 2 hours in duration with no requirement for pre or post course activities to be completed as homework. Attendees must have completed the Basic Awareness and Foundations before undertaking. Please see the training matrix for those roles that would benefit from this course.
