A unique learning experience
CalmFamily CPD
We offer regular continual professional development (CPD) opportunities to our consultants including both online and in person CPD. As a learning organisation training and learning is as important for experienced consultants as for recent trainees.
CalmFamily CPD includes networking opportunities and highly valuable learning sessions with our own trainers and external specialists. Previous speakers have included Helen Ball and Gill Rapley and many more.
Consultant training taster
Our CPD is also available as a taster event if you’re considering consultant training. In person CPD is a wonderful way to get to know the directors, some consultants, and to get a feel for the ethos of the organisation.
CPD for other professionals
There are many professionals working on their own or in small organisations to support parents and families, and to promote calmer relations. We recognise that being able to run your own in house CPD can take time and resources that you don’t have. This is why we welcome any relevant professional to attend our CPD.
Whether you are a doula, a sling consultant or librarian, run antenatal courses, offer infant massage classes, deliver parent and toddler courses, offer perinatal mental health support or much more you are welcome to attend our CPD. You can benefit from our access to external professionals, our unique approach to supporting families, and the community of support our CPD offers.
