Early Support training
Training and professional development are key to supporting a partnership approach to working with families and multi-agency service development at local level. Early Support offers a wide range of training courses and workshops to meet the needs of both families with a disabled child and the practitioners working with them. This section describes the full training programme, gives feedback from people who have undertaken the courses and explains how to enrol.
