Excellent course, I understand it’s from a women’s aid perspective so there’s obviously a lot of gender bias in material & verbal examples.
Really enjoyed both sessions of DV training learned lots of new stuff regarding victims & perpetrators.
I would highly recommend this training as I found it very beneficial and I have gained more confidence in myself as an individual and also in my ability to communicate effectively with others in various situations and environments.
