Not Ready? Ddim yn Barod? The SEXtember Campaign was launched in 2015 to encourage people to discuss sexual health matters openly and without embarrassment during the month of September.  This year's campaign theme is 'Not ready? It's your choice. Get contraception that works for you - and prevent unplanned pregnancy' The seminar will explore why people are not using reliable forms of contraception, what methods are currently available and from where, and key messages we should be sharing with people who are at risk of unplanned pregnancy. The seminar is free of charge and will be held in the Lecture Theatre, Education Centre, Ysbyty Gwynedd. We will also be providing a Teams link to view the seminar, if you can't be there in person. More information on SEXtember can be found here.  We look forward to seeing you!  Lansiwyd ymgyrch SEXtember yn 2015 i annog pobl i drafod materion iechyd rhywiol yn agored ac heb embaras drwy gydol mis Medi. Thema’r ymgyrch eleni yw: ‘Ddim yn barod? Dy dyfodol di, dy ddewis di. Cael atal cenhedlu sy’n gweithio i ti – a pheidio â chael beichiogrwydd digynllun.’ Bydd y seminar yn archwilio pam nad yw pobl yn defnyddio dulliau dibynadwy o atal cenhedlu, pa ddulliau sydd ar gael ar hyn o bryd a ble i'w cael, a’r negeseuon allweddol y dylem eu rhannu gyda phobl sydd mewn perygl o feichiogrwydd digynllun. Mae’r seminar yn rhad ac am ddim ac yn cael ei gynnal yn y Theatr Ddarlithio, Canolfan Addysg, Ysbyty Gwynedd. Byddwn hefyd yn darparu dolen Teams i wylio’r seminar os nad ydych yn gallu bod yno’n bersonol. Gellir dod o hyd i fwy o wybodaeth am SEXtember yma. Rydym yn edrych ymlaen at eich gweld!

Trauma Informed Practice in Education is a research evidence based whole school systems approach that starts with you. Improved attendance, improved learning outcomes, reduced suspensions and exclusions and better staff recruitment, retention and wellbeing all begin from a place of understanding child development, the impact of adversity on child development and the role of us as educators in supporting opportunities for growth and resilience. Systems change takes teamwork, however the most important member of that team is you. On this Trauma Informed Practice Day you will learn the why and how to keep you well and resourced in order to support the emotional and academic progress of the children in your school. You may already have some knowledge or you may be coming as a complete novice. Either and anything in between is fine. Numbers are limited to keep the group small for the benefit of more enriched learning. On this practice day you will; • Take a deep learning dive into the nervous system and how this applies to you, your setting and the progress of your learners. • Learn practical skills and strategies to support yourself and others. • Have opportunities to discuss children you are working with through small group supervision sessions • Benefit from a day of immersion into the topic with two highly qualified and experienced practitioners.

This qualification aims to provide expert guidance to learners wishing to gain knowledge and understanding on Electric Vehicle charging equipment installation. This 2 day course provides expert guidance on EV charging equipment installation, an important emerging area which is not covered in detail by the current edition of the Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) or the IET’s Guidance Notes. Aimed at experienced electricians interested in understanding a wide range of equipment and systems available, this course applies to the specialised installation requirements of electric vehicle charging equipment in domestic dwellings, on-street locations, commercial and industrial premises. The course provides detailed guidance and recommendations on all aspects of the installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment from the origin of the electrical supply, through distribution and final circuits, installation of the charging equipment itself to the cable between the charging equipment and vehicle’s electrical inlet. Also included are related issues of site layout and planning and subsequent inspection, testing, certification and maintenance of installations. Why take this course? Currently there is an increasing demand for new electric vehicle charging points but too few installers to roll them out. This is already a booming market which is due to get much bigger in the near future. The number of public charging connectors and locations has increased by 38% in the past 12 months and is expected to continue at that rate for years to come. Entry Requirements There are no formal entry requirements for this qualification, however we do expect you to meet the following requirements: Minimum age 18 years old (mandatory) Must be able to demonstrate the following competencies Be able to correctly install and terminate: pvc/pvc cable (twin and earth) Steel Wire armoured cable (swa) Be able to carry out an initial verification (inspection & testing) on an electrical installation and complete the necessary paperwork. Please Note: These competencies are required for the assessment and are not taught as part of the course. It is also recommended that you are up to date with your wiring regulations.
