Foster Parent Training

We want you to develop skills, knowledge and qualifications while you’re a Foster Parent, and feel secure and confident in your work.

We will work with you to identify training to meet the needs of you, your foster children and family. You don’t need any previous training or formal qualifications to foster, but you will need to be prepared to learn new things.

Whether you want to gain new qualifications or be trained to enhance your fostering skills further, our training will help you build upon the qualities and life experience you already have. You'll always have opportunities to undertake more training and development with us.

Our Training Programme

Every year we offer a range of optional courses on a range of issues that are essential and relevant learning - many new courses. These are courses are run by knowledgeable and friendly people.

Therapeutic Training and Education

Education is an important part of our fostering approach. Our therapeutic training makes our Foster Parents highly demanded.

Foster Parent Promotion

As our Foster Parents develop their skills through training, and their day to day fostering work, they can reach the criteria for achieving meaningfully higher pay grades through promotion.
