Protective Behaviours Foundation is for anyone who lives and/or works with children, young people, or adults. Ideally the day sessions are separated by one or two weeks to allow time for reflection and practice.

The Foundation course introduces the 5 elements of the PB process and provides opportunities to experience the 7 strategies in action.

The learning outcomes for the course are that each participant will be able to:

• understand what makes up the Language of Safety and be able to use this in order to communicate in a way that enhances relationships and empowers all involved
• explain some of the possible effects of Unwritten Rules
• describe the relationship between Feelings, Thoughts and Behaviour and use this model to problem solve events
• clarify Rights and Responsibilities
• define a personal concept of Safety
• describe the function of Early Warning Signs in the PB process
• describe how a person might use the idea of Personal Networks of support
• describe how someone could use the seven PB Strategies as an integral part of the Protective Behaviours process in practice
• devise a Personal and/or Group Plan to use the Protective Behaviours process
• make links with the Protective Behaviours process and things that people may already statutorily have to do or choose to do
