Cutting Edge Continuous Professional Development (CPD)

We believe that children, young people and families most benefit from those services designed, managed and delivered by a professional workforce.

Whether you’re looking to develop entry-level training or to support colleagues to obtain advanced CPD, the centre can support you in responding to changing workforce development needs.

Working together, we can design training at the cutting edge, drawing on local, national and international research and best practice.

Please contact us to discuss your workforce training needs.
