Good training changes you. It opens you up to new perspectives; empowers you to face challenges head on; gives you confidence in your ability to respond to a crisis.
For over twenty years, we’ve seen good training transform personal and organisational practice, and enhance whole-organisation wellbeing.
CALM’s approach to training stems from our diverse professional and practice-based roots; our first commitment is to the safety and quality of life of people in services – both those being supported and the staff providing the support.
This [course] has been transformative. There are so many aspects of what I have learned about the importance and value of relationships with the people we support and also with my colleagues that I am going to take back to my workplace and everyday practice commitments.
In some approaches, one practice model will dominate – usually focusing on trauma, or attachment or behaviour.
But to truly make sense of behaviours that challenge, you need a model that integrates an understanding of trauma and attachment and behaviour. CALM brings you this multi-lens perspective.
Once you start to look at behaviours that challenge through this “multiple lens” approach, the result is deeper understanding about both the potential roots of challenging behaviour, and the development of positive support strategies. This shared collective understanding underpins improved consistency of practice, leading to greater predictability for the person being supported; which leads to lower anxiety and a positive impact on their behaviour.
The trainer was so good! The information was presented in such an exciting and engaging way, with lots of movement and obvious passion for the topic – never a dull moment – kept my interest – ’til the end!
