Short Courses for Social Work Staff & Those Involved in Child Care & Protection & Community Care

The School encourages social workers and other staff involved in child care and protection, community care and related areas to pursue lifelong learning. To this end, we collaborate in post-qualifying training with statutory, private and voluntary organisations to promote post qualifying studies for their staff.

The list below provides a sample of the educational and training programmes that can be provided:

• Assessment Frameworks

Short courses are often 2-3 days in length and can be delivered locally in partnership with local agencies/Fauthorities. The price depends on a range of factors including number of participants, length of programme, venue etc.
