“Working With Survivors of Domestic Violence” Training Programme

This programme is recognised and accredited by the National Open College Network. Its design is such that individuals are able to claim credits for each unit completed, thus allowing for personal choice, professional necessity and personal circumstances that may prohibit participation in the whole programme.

Every unit required one day attendance and total input of 10 learning hours.
