Course description

Our Safeguarding Adults Level 2 Refresher course has been designed for those learners who have completed their level 2 training in the past, whether that is through face-to-face training or digital training, and are looking to refresh and update their knowledge.

For anyone who works with vulnerable adults, there are a number of safeguarding responsibilities. This course is designed for those who have extra safeguarding responsibilities, but aren’t at a managerial or supervisor level.

The course will provide deeper insights into safeguarding and cover a range of key topics and areas of responsibilities, including signs and symptoms, the types of abuse, what to do if an adult discloses information, and what are your responsibilities if you suspect abuse, including recording and reporting.

We also offer Safeguarding Adults Training at Level 1 and Level 3

Why take this course?

If you work with vulnerable adults, you have a duty to safeguard. In order to understand and meet your responsibilities, safeguarding training is a statutory requirement. Your training must be refreshed regularly, which is why refresher courses are so important.

Though companies will decide how regularly training needs to be refreshed, two years is a common recommendation. Though this will vary depending on the roles and responsibilities.
