Training

We have delivered training, both in person and online, to Local Authority teams, schools, Careers Hubs and Supported Employment and NEET Prevention teams.

Engaging, accessible NEET prevention, belonging and inclusion training for educational professionals and services.

Training draws on our research findings to help you:

  • understand what makes engagement interventions effective
  • deepen understanding of the factors leading to NEET/ early school leaving
  • learn about 13 evidence-informed intervention strategies
  • practice using the toolkit resources to apply insights to a case young
  • consider how Connected Belonging can enhance your whole school inclusion plans and wellbeing strategies

Indicative Training Options & Costs

Training is typically a 2 hour session led by Professor Ceri Brown and Dr Alison Douthwaite but duration and specific content can be tailored to suit.

In Person Training / CPD: £2000 + Travel costs

Online Training/ CPD £1000

Free Video Training: Thanks to funding and collaboration from Somerset Council, we have been able to record our training sessions for others to access and use free of charge. Time to pause the videos for group activities and discussion, and to use the accompanying resources means a staff member can easily lead the training internally. Three sessions build on each other, embedding and deepening learning. Session 1 lasts 1 hour, including activity and discussion. Session 2 lasts 25 minutes including activity and discussion. Session 3 is a powerpoint led activity which should last around 30 minutes. Access the free training videos and supporting resources on our resources page.

If you would like in-person training but cost is a barrier, or would like a longer or bespoke training session, please contact Alison on ad879@bath.ac.uk
