. The course offers an opportunity to consider different aspects of training including:
• Models of practice – different approaches to training

• Learn from each other
• Build supportive networks and aid communication
• Receive facilitated professional peer support
• Critically reflect on your own work practice
• Gain a critical distance from the pressures of day to day work
