Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)

Overview

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are stressful or traumatic events during childhood, including abuse, neglect and serious household difficulties. Research shows that repeated adversity can affect long-term health and wellbeing, although it does not determine any individual child’s future. With safe, supportive relationships, many children can build resilience and thrive.

This Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) course gives you a clear, balanced foundation. You will learn about ACEs, child development, resilience and recovery, and how trauma-informed practice can support children and families.

The course also covers UK safeguarding, professional responsibilities, evidence, ethics and the limitations of ACE scores. You will finish by applying ACE awareness to your role and planning your professional development. No prior experience is needed.

There are no hidden fees or exam charges. We are very upfront and clear about all the costs of the course.
