The Training Programme

There is a range of modules on offer which can be taken as a whole or individually. We can be flexible and accommodate different training needs - please ask us!

Participants are encouraged to take Module 1 first as it provides the background for the others.

Aim

To enable participants to work more effectively and confidently with families by equipping them with knowledge about:

• The variety of family structures existing in Scotland today
• The emotional, social and financial effects of relationship breakdown on families
• The role of family support services
• The background of family law and legal issues
• Shared Parenting and its implications for the family
• Issues particularly affecting fathers
• The financial context for changing families
• Resources in the community available for signposting
