This e-learning course will explore what Prevent – the governments strategy to tackle radicalisation, covers and how to work to prevent the risk of someone being radicalised.
Through the units, students will explore various case studies and learn the skills needed to prevent young and vulnerable people from being radicalised.
It is important for people who safeguard children and young adults to have knowledge on Prevent, as it will help them to spot signs of radicalisation. This course will cover what terrorism is, what Prevent and British values are, in line with the governments CONTEST strategy. We will also look at the warning signs of radicalisation and who is at risk, as well as looking at the guidance offered for the different sectors, including the Police, Prisons and Schools.
This course is perfect for anyone working with children, young people or vulnerable adults that could be at risk of radicalisation.
