WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND A CLASSROOM COURSE VS E-LEARNING?

A training course involving this level of safeguarding simply cannot be conveyed on an e-learning course. The essential, but sometimes distressing imagery is so important to recognising safeguarding issues and cannot be published to a publicly accessible E-Learning platform.

Face to face training is delivered by a safeguarding expert with real life case studies that cannot be shared or published onto e-learning. Only face to face training can be completely up to date and only in a classroom course can real case discussions take place.

Delegates are able to ask questions, challenge and gain a better understanding of the subject. It is also acknowledged that when there is interaction between the trainer and delegate, the learning is better retained.
