About this course

Talking about abuse can be really stressful. If someone comes to you for help, they need to feel safe and supported. They need to be heard, and their disclosure needs to be taken seriously.

Managing a safeguarding disclosure involves handling concerns about abuse sensitively and effectively. Anyone could be trusted with a disclosure, particularly if your job involves close contact with children or vulnerable adults. If you find yourself in this position, you have a responsibility to respond appropriately and to do what you can to prevent any further harm occurring.

Engaging the learner

Abuse is a difficult, but important subject to discuss. If conversations aren’t started, then abuse won’t be stopped. It’s also vital that safeguarding disclosures are handled properly. With that in mind, we designed a course that delivers facts in a sensitive and engaging way, using simple line drawn animation to tell a story.

And with knowledge checkers throughout the course, as well as a quiz featuring several different question types, learners can apply their new knowledge straight away to problem-solve. This helps them connect the dots, cementing the learning and making it memorable and lasting.

Peace of mind with testing

This course also has an assessment at the end which allows learners to test their understanding and helps businesses demonstrate a level of competence in the topic.

With a bank of questions learners will get randomised assessments which means if people do fail the assessment, they aren't faced with the same quiz again; after all you want to test learners knowledge and not their ability to remember the right button to press second time around.
