Coercive and controlling behaviour is a form of psychological abuse that can have huge impacts on victims, and be difficult to spot for victims and professionals alike. Learn how to identify the signs of coercive control and how to support those who may be facing this abuse. This is a CPD accredited session.
This is a half-day, live, online training session.
Learning outcomes:
- To enhance your awareness of coercive control and its prevalence
- To explore the legal definition and legislation around coercive and controlling behaviour
- To be able to identify coercive behaviour and spot the signs of this type of abuse
- To share some strategies for gathering evidence and supporting clients to keep themselves safe.
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.
