New Condensed Module

We understand that for many professionals, time and budget constraints mean they are unable to attend our three individual training modules. Therefore, we have developed a condensed module which includes the key elements of each of our individual training modules, in one half day (4 hour) session.

The training is interactive, comprising small group activities and whole group discussions alongside information delivered by our trainer and PowerPoint presentation.

The group activities are opportunities for professionals from different sectors to come together and learn from each other, and share their perspectives and expertise.

Families Outside’s Training for Professionals is suitable for any professional whose role means they come into contact with families, and who feel that they would benefit from being able to better support families affected by imprisonment in their own role. Previous sessions have been well attended by education professionals, social workers and those in the third sector.
