Prevent for Support Staff

Welcome and introduction

This training module is designed to raise your awareness of the Prevent duty for FE and to:

  • provide some case studies and activities that help to support this process
  • identify why you need to be aware of your and your provider's Prevent duties
  • understand your specific role as a member of support staff
  • understand what compliance with the Duty means for you and your institution

You should read through the training module. As you go through the module you may find it useful to make notes in response to the activities or to any other issues which are raised through the content and which you need to explore further within your organisation.

When you are confident of the content you will be able to take the Prevent duty awareness raising module assessment.
