Creative Thinking & Continuous Improvement programme has been developed to give managers and staff the tools, techniques and practice the skills in order to be more efficient, think of new ideas, and take the initiative and responsibility for improvement ideas, using Kaizen and creative thinking techniques.

The programme has been split into two half day modules – Creative Thinking – 3 hours, and Continuous Improvement – 3 hours, delivered on a virtual platform.

This course will equip corporate managers with the skills necessary to enable them to under stand how to effectively manage health and safety within their areas of responsibility. Please note - The Managing Key Issue in H & S for ASC managers is organised by the ASC Training Team.

This training is expected to be delivered via Microsoft Teams.

This course is designed to give you guidelines and essential skills to help you writing clear and effective agendas and minutes for meetings.

More than that, this workshop will explore the ways in which you can become a more effective meetings administrator, and support your Chair more productively.

As with all Yellow Day courses, all the learning is intensely practical.

Are you working with individuals who find it challenging to engage with conventional services or offers of help? Ever asked yourself “what has happened to them” rather than “what is wrong with them?” Then this course is for you.

Trauma informed approaches are strength based and recognise that past experiences, relationships, intersectionality, and context affect current ways of being, relationships and interactions.  The Trauma informed lens reframes behaviour that has been traditionally seen as “resistant, difficult, challenging or problematic” as individuals’ best attempts at coping and surviving.  In this context it is understandably that the relationships practitioners build with people to promote safety, is emotional work, that inevitably impacts upon them.

This multi agency face to face course is facilitated by highly experienced practitioners working in a range of settings including mental health, children’s social care and university and in consultation with Recovery Partners (Experts by Experience).

There is an expectation that you have completed the online course introducing you to Trauma informed Practice ahead of the course date and read the booklet that will be e-mailed to you.  Details of the online course and the booklet will be sent to you closer to the course.

Time pressures impact our work and personal lives as we aim to achieve higher levels of performance with less resource (time) to achieve it. The ability to manage time is an essential skill for effective people. Time management is not about cramming more work into your day, it is about doing better work, with less stress and knowing you have achieved what you set out to do. We will address how to manage your time when working from time.

This face to face classroom course, will enable participants to:

This Pan Sussex multi-agency training opportunity is aimed at all practitioners and carers working or caring for looked after children or care leavers. This includes foster carers, residential workers, GPs, Health Visitors, School Nurses, Independent Reviewing Officers and Supervising Social Workers.

Messages from practice and research highlights that children and adults who are care experienced have higher rates of physical, emotional, social, and educational need, and are more likely to experience homelessness, teenage pregnancy, prison and problems with their mental and emotional health. They are also more likely to die younger. The majority of children who enter care have suffered significant harm, neglect and trauma, and some are children who have travelled alone from their country of origin to seek asylum in UK.

The training will be delivered by trainers from Health and Children's Services, as live interactive classroom training, delivered through Microsoft Teams.
