Understanding Trauma: Registration

 

Trauma.pngThese two programs target a deep understanding of how early trauma, abuse and neglect can impact the developing brain. 
Our presenters Kellie and Rebecca have extensive experience in working with complex trauma cases. Both presenters have trained with the Child trauma Academy in the USA and have Masters’ degrees in Trauma Aware Education. They utilise evidence-based approaches to re-engage children and to build skills in teachers and school leaders alike. As school leaders, they have specialised in working with children who are disengaged and display extreme behaviours, many of whom have experienced trauma. Both have also been foster-carers for high-needs children, and have a wealth of experience to draw on. 

NOTE – The two workshops “Understanding the Traumatised Child” and “How Trauma affects Schools” are designed to complement each other.  They can be undertaken in any sequence or take advantage of the special price when completing both courses together as a 2-day masterclass (where available).
