25.01.2022 Have you booked in for this?

24.01.2022 Recorded Webinar for Child Protection Update 2020 is now accessible via our online booking https://becauseitmatters.as.me/schedule.php This training is usually provided Face to Face for many services on annual basis. Unfortunately it just isn't safe for us to do this at the moment. So we have started recording our training. For now you receive a PDF of the powerpoint, a link to the recording and a questionnaire to complete to return to us confirming you have watched and understood the training. Once you have done this we will send your Certificate of Participation. Keep an eye out for more of our training being made available this way. We have kept the cost very low during these challenging times in the education and care sector. Currently $20 per person for this 2hr training that you can do in your own home.
