Spotlight Sessions
The WSCP safeguarding Spotlight Sessions are part of our training and learning offer to professionals.
Spotlight Sessions are short single topic safeguarding briefings delivered virtually via Microsoft Teams. Sessions will be delivered 3 or 4 times, and briefings on different topics will be delivered throughout the year. Please note, these are short briefing sessions not training, therefore attendance certificates will not be provided.
