Events
Safeguarding Trainers' Forum
A forum of child protection trainers exists to discuss
training needs, issues, ideas and suggestions. Formerly
run as regular meetings, it was found that very few trainers
could physically attend and in consequence the forum's
function has been transferred to the Trainers' online
discussion area on our extranet site.
Volunteer workers' training calendars
The Safeguarding Office also provides training for child
protection co-ordinators.
As all training meetings and events are open only
to Church of Scotland staff, office bearers and those
in the ministries, please visit our the Support and
Services Council pages on our dedicated
extranet site for more information and to download
these guides.
