							</p><p>Currently, IFRS consists of two principles-based standards, IAS 18 Revenue and IAS 11 (Construction Contracts) and three IFRS Interpretations. These were criticised for failing to provide adequate guidance on application - they have been described as 'vague and inconsistent'. The IASB and the US Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) collaborated on a project to develop improved, converged standards for revenue recognition. Preparers must develop a policy for measuring the amount and timing for recognising revenue for goods and services. Revenue is a key performance indicator that drives the recognition of expenses and profits and the valuation of an entity.</p>

Details 
Using pre-recorded training, interactive on-line content (through Padlet), self-directed learning and live events, this substantial and comprehensive blended training course keeps delegates interested, engaged and learning new ways to bring excellence to their 24-hour postural care provision and focuses on the often neglected lying position and how unsupported lying drives changes to a person's body shape which impacts sitting, standing and functional movement. 
You will have access to the online learning from 4th November 2024 and be provided with all the information you will need to complete the course. At 1pm (GMT) on 4th November you will then join the trainers for an introductory event via Zoom to provide an outline of the training and to answer any questions you may have. Over the next few weeks you can access the pre-recorded training videos and interactive online content to enable you to complete the workbook. On 16th December there will be a series of live discussion events for the specific ages the course covers to assess your learning (you must attend at least one of these events - please see below for further information). 
Why? 
People with complex needs, deserve a thorough, co-ordinated 24-hour postural care service. We only get one body and yet people with complex disabilities don't always get the 'annual service' afforded the equipment they use.
Posture Positive report (2020) found training is a key aspect to developing resilient and robust 24-hour postural care for people with complex needs. Every person with complex needs or limited movement requires a comprehensive 24-hour postural care service delivered in a personalised way. 
Who? 
The course is suitable for specialist physiotherapists, specialist occupational therapists and other highly trained healthcare professionals working in health, SEN and social care. 
The course breaks down the life span of a person as follows:
0-3 years
Children and young people in education
Adults
Older people an palliative care
Each delegate selects the aspects of the course relevant to their particular area of practice whilst having access to all the course resources.
What? 
On completion of the course, it is hoped delegates will be equipped with the knowledge needed to deliver an outstanding, person-centred, 24-hour postural care service. 
This course covers: 
Why is postural care such a big deal?
What is 24-hour postural care?
Identification of need
Predictable changes to body shape
Preventing, protecting and reversing body shape distortion
Postural care in the real world with real people
Special considerations for all stages of life
Monitoring and evaluating outcomes
Co-production in developing personalised postural care
You can focus on one specific age group or take a general approach allowing you to adapt the course to meet your own learning objectives. 
On 16th December the final live review events with the trainers via Zoom are available for the specific ages that the course covers. You must attend at least one of these live discussion (the one most relevant to your practice) but you are welcome to join all four. Please note the timings are GMT.
10.30am - 11.30am 0-3 years
11.45am – 12.45pm Children in education
1.45pm - 2.45pm Adults
3.00pm - 4.00pm Older people and palliative care
Training for individuals and family carers
On successful completion of the course, all delegates will gain access to bespoke training materials designed by parents for parents of people with complex needs. This includes ongoing trainer support for local therapists hosting the workshops, pre-recorded training videos, workbook and designated webpage.
