Prevent Duty Training
Recognise the signs of radicalisation and learn how to respond under the Prevent duty, a key part of UK counter-terrorism safeguarding.
- CPD Accredited
What this course covers
Prevent is the safeguarding strand of the UK's counter-terrorism strategy, and many public and voluntary sector organisations hold a legal duty to have due regard to it. This programme helps staff understand that duty, covering the push and pull factors that create vulnerability to radicalisation and extremism.
Learners also cover how to respond to a concern, including the Channel referral process that offers early intervention support. The course explains how British values underpin the wider Prevent approach.
