Description

Child Protection Advanced Online Course

(formally know as the child protection / safeguarding children level 2)

Unit Descriptions

This short online programme is designed for anyone who comes into contact with children through their work or leisure activities and aims to provide a practical awareness of the issues relating to the protection of children.

This is achieved through exploring the concepts of child vulnerability, child protection and significant harm. Building on these concepts the issue of child abuse is explored through focusing on the four main forms of abuse and bullying. There is a brief examination of the law that underpins child protection and the responsibility in relation to handling the disclosure of abuse by children.

By the end of the study the learner will be equipped with the knowledge, understanding and skills to recognise the signs and symptoms of child vulnerability and abuse which will in turn help to reduce its incidence.

Module 1 - Understanding Safeguarding & Child Protection
Module 2 - Child Development
Module 3 - Legal Definition, the concepts of child vulnerability, child protection and significant harm.
Module 4 - The legislative and policy framework
Module 5 - Safeguarding Terms

How it works
Beginning with Module 1, read through each module carefully, and at your own pace, ensuring that you have understood and absorbed its content. On completing a module, you will attempt to answer the corresponding questionnaire for that module.

Each questionnaire is presented in a multiple-choice format; simply select the answer you believe is correct and click on the ‘Next’ button to continue onto the next question.

Your score for each questionnaire appears as soon as you have completed the last question. You need to achieve an overall pass rate of 70% to obtain a certificate of completion.

You have 1 attempt to pass each questionnaire; if you fail to reach an overall pass rate of 70% you will need to repeat the programme again (at an extra cost to you) in order to receive your course certificate.

To complete the online course, you must work through all the modules (ie open each page), as well as attain the pass criteria for the online course.

You may exit the programme and return later at any point in any of the modules. All you need to do is log back into your account and go to "order history" and click 'resume' and you will automatically be returned to the place you left off. You can only log out and return later when in a module, you can't log out during the questionaire at the end of each module.

On completion / Passing of the programme, you will be able to return to your account and download and then print your course certificate automatically you will also be sent an email confirming your pass or failure status, along with appropriate instructions as to what to do next.

In this programme we use children and young people interchangeably. There are variations in terminology, legislation, guidance and practice relating to child protection in the different nations of the UK.

However, the principles are broadly the same and this programme is intended to be relevant to all those whose work (paid or unpaid) brings them into contact with children and young people. For nation-specific information, you will find it useful to visit the websites listed at the end of module four.
