A large workforce development survey, commissioned by Plymouth City Council in 2018, informed our training development. The survey found that 83% of Plymouth respondents saw trauma informed practice, as a priority but only 28% had received any training.
In response, the workforce development branch of the Network developed a Trauma Informed Practice course which has kindly been coordinated by the Plymouth Safeguarding Children Partnership. This L3 certificated safeguarding course introduces the Network’s Approach to Envisioning Plymouth as a Trauma Informed City and explores the key values underpinning a trauma informed approach.
The Trauma Informed Plymouth Network deliver courses on
Trauma Informed Practice – full day, face to face
Trauma Informed Practice – 3 hours, online or face to face
An Introduction to Trauma Informed Practice – 1 hour, online or face to face
Vicarious and Secondary Trauma
