Tuesday February 2021

There is a new way to book on to BSCP Training courses!

From 1st February, we will no longer accept the booking forms sent to Safeguarding.Training@bromley.gov.uk instead you must book via our new learning management system called EVOLVE.

Guidance can be found here but it’s very straightforward and you only need to register once. Once you’re registered on EVOLVE, you can manage your own bookings, cancellations, print certificates and submit evaluations. Managers can see their staff members’ training records. See below for the full benefits.

If you have a pre-existing booking with us for February or March 2021 then it has already been transferred to Evolve for you.

We have ten excellent webinars running between now and the end of the financial year, so take a look at the Diary of Events 2021 and book on using EVOLVE today! New courses are being commissioned all the time.

Our training courses are free to all staff from: LBB, BHC, Kings, CCG, Oxleas, SLAM, Met Police, NPS, CRC, LFB and Bromley based charities with an annual turnover of less than £500k. For all our other partners, including schools and early years settings, some courses do incur a charge but rates are very reasonable and the quality is consistently rated by participants as very good or excellent.

Basic Training: e-learning modules

As ever, access to our online e-learning modules (via ME Learning) is free to absolutely everybody living or working/volunteering in Bromley. Booking on an e-learning course is unaffected by EVOLVE. Our 24 different e-learning courses are great as introductions or refreshers to key safeguarding topics. They form the basics of Level 1 and Level 2 training and are largely suitable for anyone in the children’s workforce or with an interest in keeping children safe. See our online training webpage for more details.
