Level 2 Award in Understanding Behaviours that Challenge
The Understanding Behaviours that Challenge Level 2 course aims to provide healthcare support workers and adult social care workers with an understanding of behaviours that challenge and how to effectively support individuals in their care settings. The course focuses on helping participants comprehend the functions and meanings behind challenging behaviours, enabling them to respond appropriately and provide person-centred support.
The course has a duration of 3 hours, allowing participants to gain a foundational understanding of understanding behaviours that challenge within a focused timeframe. The training is typically conducted in person, providing opportunities for interactive discussions, case studies, and practical exercises to deepen understanding and promote learning.
Upon successful completion of the course, participants will receive a certificate that is valid for three years. This certification serves as evidence of their understanding of behaviours that challenge and their ability to provide effective support and care to individuals in their care settings.
