Our two-day Grief and Loss training is delivered before taking up a placement with us. Training dates are 15 & 16 February 2025. We require all applicants to attend both training days, which are assessed. There will also be a two-hour local induction for those who successfully complete the training.

 

The training will be delivered via Zoom therefore you must have access to a PC/laptop/tablet for both training days.  The format of the course is a mix of trainer led delivery, skills practice and eLearning.  You should be prepared to engage in role play as part of this learning.
