MULTI-AGENCY SAFEGUARDING TRAINING FOR 2011-2012

Dear Colleague

Welcome to the NEW Training section of the LSCB website!  We are committed to providing a comprehensive and high quality multi-agency learning experience for all practitioners, including the Community and Voluntary Sector, who work with children and young people in Harrow. We look forward to seeing you and if there is anything we can assist you with, please get in touch.  There are a number of NEW developments around LSCB Training to make yourself aware of:

NEW Online Course booking system: Register and manage your own Safeguarding Training account
• Set up your own individual user account when you apply for training - this means you will not have to repeat your details everytime you want to apply for a course.  You will only need to login to your account.
• Manage your own portfolio of safeguarding training.
• Complete post-event evaluation feedback to measure impact on practice .
• Register your interest in upcoming courses or events.

As from July 2010,  course applications will be done online only

NEW Closing date for Course applications We will no longer be operating a ‘first come first serve’ system in booking for courses. This will be replaced with a ‘Closing date for application’ of 3 weeks before the course is due to take place. Please ensure that you submit your application no later than this closing date. After the closing date all applicants will be shortlisted to ensure a multi-agency constitution.

NEW LEVEL 3 Course Decision making and assessment in Child Protection – Two day multi-agency course with a particular focus on Neglect. As from November 2010, this new course replaces the current Level 3 ‘Enhance your Child Protection Skills’ course of which the last event will take place on 7-8 July 2010.  If you have attended the Level 3 'Enhance your Child Protection Skills' course in the last 2 years, you don't need to re-apply for the new Level 3 Training course.

NEW Change in Course Fee Structure
Multi-agency Safeguarding Training will continue to be free to organisations that contribute to the work of the Board and to Voluntary, Faith, Community and Residents organisations and groups who are not in receipt of a training grant or have a limited training budget. This is subject to negotiation with the LSCB Strategic Development Manager. As from July 2010, organisations who do not contribute to the LSCB budget will be expected to pay a fee per person per day.

Course / Workshop fees

Partner agencies contributing to the LSCB : FREE

Voluntary, Faith, Community and Residents organisations and Groups:  FREE

Profit making organistions, agencies in receipt of a training grant, and Schools and Colleges in Harrow:

£95 per day for a full day course (£180 in total for two day courses)

£45 per day for a half day course

If you have any comments, questions or queries about the work of the LSCB Learning and Development Faculty, the Training programme or individual courses, don't hesitate to contact us via email lscb@harrow.gov.uk or call us on Tel. 020 8424 1147.
