The South Gloucestershire SAB have now been approved to deliver a brand new Train The Trainer for Adult Safeguarding. The Safeguarding Adults Board is providing the opportunity for anyone in or working in the South Gloucestershire area to join this network.
If your organisation already has an in-house Safeguarding Adults trainer, or if you can identify someone to take on that role, we are inviting you to be a member of the Network.
The Trained Trainers who will be able to attend:
* Deliver SAB-approved Adult Safeguarding Awareness training to staff in their own agency, and to open up their training to other organisations as well.
* You will need to have previously attended a Raising Safeguarding Concerns course.
The event will be in two parts, the morning session will go through the material and slide deck for the safeguarding awareness course and the afternoon session will focus on the practical activities, practice at training delivery and learning styles.
The workshop is aimed at those who are new to delivering formal training sessions to groups or any trainer looking for fresh ideas and a structured approach to their training.
Following attendance at this course there will be the opportunity to attend regular network meetings with other trainer trainers to receive updates to the material and ongoing support.
