Safeguarding Children Online Course - Accredited CPD

Social Care/Development, Advocacy

Overview

The Safeguarding Children online course is accredited by the CPD certification service.

Safeguarding is about minimising and managing the risks to vulnerable individuals. Although most children are brought up in loving, nurturing environments and grow up to lead happy lives, the subject has to be discussed in order to better protect those children that need it most.
During this course you will hear many facts, figures and details surrounding the risk to children, the types of abuse suffered, how to recognise the signs of abuse and key safeguarding legislations put in place to minimise the abuse of children.
Once you are able to recognise the signs of possible abuse, and know the steps you should take if you suspect it you will be better able to protect the children in your care.

This is a video course with a high-quality combination of up to date content, animation and presentation.
