Our Course ContentOur course material is primarily based around bespoke videos that we have produced ourselves, showcasing examples from sector experts and publicly available best-practice clips from video sharing sites such as YouTube.

We believe that it’s vital our videos are neither too juvenile or high level and are produced with the prison population in mind. The videos are suitably paced with regular recaps and ‘breaks’ so that learners can take notes, ‘pause for thought’ and reflect on their learning.

Learners will be supplied with a paper-based workbook to complete their course and be supported by our tutors via a freephone telephone number for nominated afternoon tutorials.
