Developing the skills of CP Conference Minute Takers
Wednesday 9th June 2010
This training event is designed to offer those who are responsible for taking minutes at a child protection conference an opportunity to explore the issues around the purpose and process of CP conferences and to enhance their skills in producing an effective and accurate record of the proceedings.
Participants will also explore the emotional impact on minute takers of the content of many CP conferences and how this can impede their primary task of minute taking.
Chairing CP Case Conferences for Experienced Chairs
Monday 12th July 2010
This one-day programme is a “refresher” opportunity for more experienced chairs that may not have had the opportunity to reflect on their practice in a group of peers with the support of an experienced facilitator. It is also particularly appropriate for those who have completed our course for new and nearly new conference chairs and who have now had some experience in this role.
It is designed to offer more experienced chairs the chance to meet with others to explore and discuss their experiences and the dilemmas that have arisen for them in the context of chairing child protection conferences.
