Overview of Behaviour that Challenges
Qualification objectives
By completing the qualification, learners will develop in-depth knowledge of behaviour that challenges which could support progression onto other appropriate qualifications and into relevant employment in the health and social care sector. It could be useful to learners working in education settings.
Awareness and understanding
In the UK alone, there are 30,000 people with a severe learning disability whose behaviour can challenge.
However, behaviour that challenges is not limited to people with learning disabilities, which is why it is vital to raise awareness and understanding of this type of behaviour and its effects.
This free course will equip learners with a detailed understanding of behaviour that challenges, including how to support positive behaviour, the importance of effective communication in managing behaviour, and the role of reflection and support for those involved in incidents of behaviour that challenges.
Who is it suitable for?
There are no specific recommended prior learning requirements for this qualification. However, staff may find it helpful if they’ve already achieved a Level 1 qualification in healthcare, social care, childcare or supporting learning.
