Child Matters Training Model
Child Matters provides professional training from introductory level half
day workshops through to a one-year NZQA accredited Diploma course.
Child Matters recommends all organisations dealing with children
or communities, adopt the 3 stage training model. Staff at the
earlier stages of training are supported by those who have had more
comprehensive training, as well as by robust policies and procedures.
This comprehensive approach ensures the entire organisation is
working together in a coordinated effort to keep children safe.
