Tackling and Preventing Domestic Abuse: Award

Nationally recognised qualification: 12 credits

Duration: 6 days

Cost: £830

The Award in Tackling and Preventing Domestic Abuse is a nationally recognised qualification and can be your first step on your career path in the domestic and sexual violence sector.

We are delighted to be offering this training remotely now so you can still gain access to this qualification without having to travel to a training venue.

What does the course cover?

The qualification consists of three units:

The nature and impact of domestic abuse
The nature and impact of domestic abuse on children and young people
Professional responses to domestic abuse

You will gain knowledge and understanding of domestic and sexual abuse which will enable you to provide a more effective and safe response within your work.

Who is this training suitable for?

The Award has been developed for those with little or no experience of working with survivors; volunteers; or those wanting to enter the sector.

The Award is also open to those who work with survivors but don’t work within the domestic and sexual violence sector, for example if you work within a Housing Department, Social Services or the Civil Service.
