Safeguarding E-Learning
The Merseyside Safeguarding Board is contracted with the Virtual College to provide 40+ online safeguarding e-learning courses. The Board is currently offering free access to all the courses for members of the adults workforce. We are likely to charge a nominal fee for future access due to the high cost of the contract.
To take advantage of the e-learning courses partner organisations must register their staff with Virtual College. Details of how to do this are below.
The Courses
Courses currently available include:
- An introduction to Forced Marriage, Spirit Possession and Honour Based Violence
- Awareness of Domestic Violence and Abuse
- Trafficking, Exploitation and Modern Slavery
- Wellbeing in Sexual Health
- Collaborative Working
- Communication in Health and Social Care
- E-safety
- Parental Mental Health
- Risk Taking Behaviour
- Safer Recruitment
- Safer Working Practices
- Understanding Pathways to Extremism
The full programme of courses can be seen on the Virtual College e-learning system. New courses are added throughout the year.
