Safeguarding Training dates for the coming year have now been released. This allows participants to plan when to attend training if they are due for the three yearly update.
The Safeguarding Training team met recently. They will shortly be launching a number of new initiatives designed to make the training as accessible as possible.
The new options will include; some centre-based face-to-face training sessions, annual Safeguarding visits to all Presbyteries and online training videos for the annual updates. Further details will follow shortly.
