Course structure
This Creating Safer Space Advanced Module course is split into three parts:
- Essential preparation (1 hour 30 minutes)
- Core learning session (4 hours)
- Handbook (a resource for further study)
Aims
The aim of the Advanced Module is to consolidate and develop your previous safeguarding learning and to:
- explore what this means in your designated role of responsibility within the Church
- further equip you with skills and resources to be confident in promoting good practice in the Church and community
- extend your understanding of responding well to different groups within the Church community.
Engagement with all three elements of the Advanced Module will enable you to meet these aims.
