WSCP Training and Events

Multi-Agency Approach –

Multi-agency training enables professionals to work effectively both within their own agency and across organisational boundaries. Training people together can make a significant contribution to building mutually respectful and trusting relationships, which forms the foundation of partnership working.

Current Training and Events –

COVID-19 Update:

The COVID-19 virus has led to significant calls on all of our time and a need to ensure that people are available to complete core tasks. Because of this and linked to the government and WHO guidance, WSCP have decided to cancel all face to face training events until further notice.  We hope that you understand this decision.

We have been working hard to explore how we can best deliver the learning and development sessions that are needed in the best way possible, given these unprecedented circumstances.

Below are current virtual courses that are on offer:

• Domestic Abuse Free Training

Worcestershire County Council has commissioned “free” multi-agency domestic abuse training in conjunction with Sarah Wigley Associates. This training seeks to raise awareness and equip professionals with a better understanding of the dynamics of abuse, including coercive control and to better identify, signpost and support victims.
