Testimonial

“I can recommend how beneficial it was to attend this training especially as my skills and knowledge have developed over time. This training will support any assessment that I work with as the theory applies across a wide spectrum. The tools used will support and evidence my existing ability to assess parenting capacity” – Foster Carer, West London
