This event is in the past
Key Learning :
- Increased confidence in undertaking assessments of children and young people’s relationships with their parents/carers
- Improved knowledge of theory, methodology and tools that can be used to assess children’s relationships
- Developed understanding of observation and analyses.
This training is aimed at anyone involved in undertaking or contributing the assessment of parent-child relationships.
Background:
This in-depth online training focuses on the theory, methods and tools that can be used to assess children and young people’s relationships with their parents/carers.
These skills can be applied when writing reports and recommending interventions to support children and young people.
By using a strengths-based method, practitioners can see what works, while not ignoring areas of risk or development.
Explore how ethical processes, such as the ‘Exchange Model,’ can be applied alongside a values-based, dynamic approach to ensure reports and recommendations are suitable.
Learn how a ‘co-construction’ approach to reports can amplify the voices of parents/carers/children.
