EMPOWERING CHANGE
We provide a comprehensive Domestic abuse perpetrators program, focused on long-term behavioural change.
This is a structured program giving learners the detailed information, insight and tools needed to change their behaviours. This course is suitable for all people, including male and females, the only criteria is that participants wish to learn and are committed to achieving change. All learners will need to complete the whole program.
The course is designed specifically with people who are currently involved in the family courts (in proceedings) or involved with local authorities.
The course is a mixture of taught and one-to-one sessions aimed at both imparting information and building understanding, self-reflection and empathy.
This is guided-learning where participants will be fully engaged in the process alongside the trainer, they will complete a learning journal as part of the course that will contribute to the overall assessment of learning at the end of the course.
This is not simply a generic training course, but an assessed and interactive program that will quantify leaning, engagement and willingness to achieve change. Learners will be challenged around their behaviours, yet also will be given the tools and ability to make lasting change in their lives.
On completion the learner will be provided with a:
· Detailed report
· Targets and Recommendations
· Personalised plan for achieving change.
