• Read more about this course

  This is an accredited course designed for participants who do not have family violence as a core function of their role but may encounter it through their interactions with children, families and/or adults within their work at universal service organisations such as schools, early childhood, justice, community and health services, sport and recreation organisations and faith-based institutions.
  
  The course provides participants with an understanding of identifying the presenting risk of family violence and providing a response including the use of a screening and identification tool and safety planning in line with the Multi-Agency Risk Assessment and Management Framework (MARAM).
  
  The course consists of one unit of study and is delivered in a blended format with a combination of workshops and self-paced online learning. The course also provides the foundational understanding of Family Violence and risk needed for further levels of specialisation.
  
  Some students may find exposure to the content of the course distressing and may possibly find this triggers past traumatic events for the student. If this is a possibility, students should consider putting additional supports in place prior to commencing the course.
