We run a programme of domestic abuse training events throughout the year in collaboration with Barnsley City Council. These events are free and available to professionals working in Barnsley. If you do not work in Barnsley, please see our national training programme which can be accessed by everybody. We have limited places and it is therefore important that you only register for a course if you intend to attend. If you are unable to attend your course for any reason, you must unregister so someone else can take your place. IDAS will report repeat incidents of non-attendance to your direct report and you may be subject to a non-attendance fee.
We operate a three strikes policy and non-attenders who miss three sessions will be blocked from registering for future IDAS training.
