Instructor's course (train the trainers) course profile

This is a very intensive course over 5 days for Breakaway Instructor level and 10 days for Breakaway and Restraint Instructor level. The course covers our full Breakaway (5 days) or Breakaway and Restraint (10 days) syllabus up to and including Instructor Level. It is suitable for any person who is required to be an “in house” instructor/trainer to teach staff within their own organisation, caring for all age groups with appropriate adaptations for juveniles and the elderly. Learners and organisations need to be aware that qualification is NOT automatic by attendance as every learner must pass our assessments to ensure that our high standards and expectations are maintained. Our company is very proud of the fact that we have the highest pass mark expected for this type of training.

Good practice dictates that all learners must:

     Have completed a full ECC&R levels 1 & 2 within the previous 12 months
 

     Have a full First Aid at Work certificate valid for at least 12 months. This can be taken

           after our course to achieve full qualification.

Our company developed the first private “Train the Trainers” course in the UK for Control and Restraint/Physical Interventions about 21 years ago. We have supplied this training to one NHS PCT for 20 years.

Aims

To teach learners to Instructor level standards so that they can effectively and competently deliver the ECC&R syllabus for Breakaway and Restraint.
