Teenage Pregnancy
This engaging course will enable you to understand the complex issue of teenage pregnancy; its causes and consequences, the current government strategies for reducing teenage conception rates and sexual risk-taking, and how the right support and access to contraceptive advice and services can make a difference. This course is for anyone who works with or has contact with teenagers, young people, and their families, including:
- Carers, parents and education staff
- Frontline health and social care staff
- Professional organisations
Many employees do not have regular contact with children or vulnerable adults, but benefit from a basic understanding of the principles of safeguarding for both of these groups. This course looks at these key principles in a short, engaging e-learning course, giving the learner confidence that they understand the basics of safeguarding required for their role.
This safeguarding awareness course is for people who might come into contact with or have occasional or indirect contact with children or vulnerable adults as part of their work.
Please note that people whose job routinely includes direct work with children or vulnerable adults should have in-depth training in safeguarding – please refer to our Level 1 and Level 2 safeguarding courses.
The course is split into four modules and will take approximately one hour to complete: 1. Recognising the signs of child abuse 2. Your role in reporting and preventing child abuse 3. Recognising the signs of adult abuse 4. Your role in reporting and preventing adult abuse.
