Designated safeguarding officer training

Workshop | LIVE - 10 September

Whether you’re new to the Designated Safeguarding Officer role, or are looking for a refresher, this interactive online workshop will cover both virtual and face-to-face settings and will equip officers with the knowledge, skills and confidence to respond to a variety of safeguarding concerns.

We’re excited to be teaming up with our friends at Psych-Logical to host this interactive online workshop on safeguarding.

You’ll have the opportunity to apply your learning from the session in a variety of self-generated scenarios, whilst receiving support and coaching from the workshop facilitators.

After the session, you will receive an invite to Psych-Logical’s Designated Safeguarding Officers forum – giving you the chance to network and share practice with other officers.

The interactive session will cover:

  • The role and responsibilities of the Designated Safeguarding Officer and other key members of staff
  • Creating and managing safeguarding systems
  • Barriers to effective organisational safeguarding processes, how to overcome them and create a safeguarding culture
  • Identifying, assessing and mitigating risk
  • Designing and developing high-standard policies and procedures for both virtual and face-to-face delivery

“With just the right approach and pitch-perfect pace, Lou achieved the impossible by keeping all of us interested and actively involved with plenty of engagement opportunities. Lou has fantastic knowledge and warm and friendly style. We all came away feeling like it was time very well spent. Highly recommended.”
