Advanced Positive Behaviour Support (12 hours)

Course Overview

   Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) is an ethical framework for supporting people who may display behaviours of concern.  Drawing on aspects of behavioural theory but with a clear person-centred values base, PBS is now recommended by NHS England, NICE and the Dept. of Health amongst others.  This detailed course looks at the core skills which are essential to embed PBS within your organisation and is aimed at anyone supporting people who display behaviours of concern.

  The two day programme will cover the core basics of the theory and values base of PBS along with its key processes.  Delegates will also learn essential practical skills including the basics of behavioural assessment, how to evaluate and improve a person’s quality of life and how to write and audit behaviour support plans.

   Our trainer has more than 20 years’ experience working as a specialist in the field of autism and behaviour, and is an associate consultant for the British Institute of Learning Difficulties (BILD).  He will happily welcome questions and offer supportive strategies throughout the course.
