SNAP Cymru Family and Young Person’s officers are the first in Wales to achieve Level 4 Key Working Accreditation.
Amanda Daniels, SNAP’s Training Manager says:
“We’re delighted with this success. The key Working training enhanced our staff’s proven abilities and brought their talents to the surface. The training helped staff understand the national context for key working and person centred planning approaches. A level 4 accreditation is a significant level and requires commitment and engagement from learners, which our staff more than met.
Our staff already embrace the family’s experience, but this training helped them re- focus on how to use the family’s strengths to solve problems and build resilience. It reinforced SNAP Cymru’s aim to promote co-ordinated approaches to working with services and agencies, keeping the family and child at the centre.”
The training built on the excellent Motivational Interviewing training delivered by Viv Mumby (vivmumby@hotmail.co.uk) which SNAP staff attended earlier this year and the Outcome Focused Intervention Training they will attend in September.
SNAP Cymru are qualified to deliver and accredit the Key Working training and the Level 4 Award, ‘Working with Children with Additional Needs and their Families’. Both courses are based on PCP approaches and the Early Support principles are embedded throughout the training.
