Training events

The NSCP training provision aims to deliver high quality up to date safeguarding training that will enable participants to keep safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children at the centre of their work. All our training events are multi-agency, so are attended by delegates from a variety of organisations, offering a great opportunity to meet partners and discuss safeguarding children issues and at the same time gaining an insight on how others work to safeguard children. Our aim is to complement single agency safeguarding children training.

The full list of courses is available below and regularly updated as new courses are added. We offer a range of learning opportunities, including face to face and virtual training courses and seminars. For further information relating to training select the links below.

Nottinghamshire Safeguarding Children Partnership monthly update briefings

The Nottinghamshire Safeguarding Children Partnership would like to keep you fully informed of what is happening both locally and nationally in relation to safeguarding children and the learning from child reviews, as such we would like to offer some new monthly briefings. These briefings are aimed to be informative but also brief as we know everyone is busy so they will only be one hour long.

To book onto any of the courses below, visit the desired event page and you will find a self-register link or contact email.

Training courses

NSCP Reducing Parental Conflict (RPC) awareness and resource training Level 3

Disagreements and arguments are a normal part of relationships. However, when conflict between carers or parents – whether together or separated - becomes frequent, intense and is poorly resolved, it can have significant negative impacts on children’s mental health and long-term life chances. The aim of the training is to raise the awareness of parental conflict and its negative impact on children and families, to empower practitioners on how to identify and explore what parental conflict is and its impact on the families we support, and to recognise and have knowledge and access to the resources and support available for parents and carers to promote them improving communication and resolving disagreements more positively.
