Overview
Our training is aimed at any parents/carers and professionals who work with children and young people within County Durham and Darlington. The training sessions that we deliver will enhance your awareness of the chosen topic, and help you explore and identify mental health concerns that may present within children and young people.
The training is a good foundation for understanding different mental health concerns that may affect children and young people. The key elements of the training packages include how to identify the concern, self-help and supportive strategies and resources and pathways for appropriate referrals.
We attempt to use a variety of learning approaches and welcome informal and anonymous case discussion to improve and develop the practice of course attendees.
Morning sessions are 9.30am to11.45am and afternoon sessions are 1.30pm to 3.45pm and include a short break.
There will be opportunity for short discussion with the facilitator after the sessions. The training is all free of charge.
