Overview

Prevent work relies on early safeguarding action rather than assumption or accusation. Employees need to recognise when a concern may require further attention and record it through the right route. This course places proportionate judgement at the centre of a safe response. It introduces the Prevent Duty within the UK counter terrorism framework and explains how safeguarding practice applies. Learners consider vulnerability and referral without losing sight of respect or inclusion.

Why this Training Matters for your Organisation
Unclear escalation can leave a vulnerable person without the support they need. Consistent training helps staff identify concerns and understand when they should be passed to a designated contact. A measured response protects individuals and supports effective multi-agency working. It also enables organisations to meet their responsibilities under the Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015.
Who Should Attend
The course is suitable for employees whose work may bring them into contact with people at risk of radicalisation. It is relevant to:
  • Frontline staff who need a clear safeguarding referral route.
