Specialist CPD modules

These modules are designed for DSLs, safeguarding leads and staff with specific responsibilities. Each includes substantial content, a case study, reflection questions and a completion certificate.

Using these modules in your setting

Each specialist module is designed for individual study or a short team-learning session. Read the guidance, use the scenario to rehearse your local response, note actions in the reflection prompts, and use the knowledge check to confirm understanding. Certificates record personal completion only and are not stored by this site.
