Tier 2: Trauma-skilled Practice


This training is open only to members of Bradford’s workforce who have already completed Tier 1: Trauma-Informed Practice training.

Join us for an engaging, interactive full-day session exploring Trauma-Skilled Practice in Bradford.


This CPD-accredited course builds on the foundations of Tier 1 and takes your understanding to the next level—moving from being trauma-informed to trauma-responsive in your day-to-day work.

The session is designed for professionals across the public and third sectors, and for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of trauma-informed approaches.

We strongly recommend that all participants complete Tier 1 before attending. If you haven’t yet done so, you can sign up for our online and in-person courses via the links provided.

Don’t miss this opportunity to build your skills, connect with like-minded peers, and enhance your trauma-responsive practice.

This full-day session will cover the following topic areas. All of these will build upon knowledge shared in our Tier 1: Trauma-informed Practice courses (online and in-person).


This full-day session will build on the knowledge shared in our Tier 1: Trauma-Informed Practice courses (available both online and in-person), focusing on the following key areas:

  • Adversity and Trauma: Exploring different types of adversity and trauma, their holistic impact, and the psychopathology of trauma—how it affects the mind, brain, and body.
  • Impact of Trauma: Unpacking a range of trauma-related symptoms, how they might present, and the concepts of frozen development, unresolved trauma, and emotional containment.
  • Resilience: Understanding how to support resilience and recovery through various approaches.
  • Trauma-Informed Practice: Revisiting core principles and frameworks, and applying them within your working context—emphasising trauma-sensitive language, non-triggering behaviours, avoiding retraumatisation, and the central role of trust and relationships.

The morning will focus on theory, while the afternoon offers an interactive workshop to help you reflect on and apply tools that are relevant to your practice.

Our training is aligned with the Scottish Trauma Framework—also known as the National Trauma Transformation Programme (NTTP)—which guides all trauma programmes across West Yorkshire.

Together, let's foster social change and well-being. Join our community-led journey towards transformation, guided by a scientific and Trauma-informed approach so we can create a Trauma-informed Community that thrives.

This training is in partnership with the West Yorkshire ATR Programme and funded by Bradford Public Health.
